The Bulls have suffered a massive blow with last year's South African player of the year Gurthro Steenkamp likely ruled out for the remainder of the season with a broken arm.
Steenkamp will need a miracle to be back in camp as he has been ruled out for a total of 12 weeks.
However, the good news for the Bulls is that Bakkies Botha has been cleared of his charge of alleged foul play against the Stormers'.
The reigning Investec Super Rugby champions are under pressure following two shock defeats at Loftus Versfeld, a location that earlier this season no team had won at for over two years.
The Bulls will face the Lions in Pretoria on Sunday morning at 1.05am.
Mmeanwhile the Rebels take on the Lions tomorrow at 6.40pm.
