Rugby pundits in New Zealand are finding it difficult to choose who will come out victorious between the Highlanders and the Hurricanes in their much anticipated Super Rugby clash tonight.
The return of All Blacks Beauden Barrett from injury will give the Canes some classy game management skills.
Expect the in-form Highlanders pivot Lima Sopoaga to have the best goalkicking percentage tonight.
However, Highlanders coach Jamie Joseph’s decision to rest his three All Blacks, fullback Ben Smith, halfback Aaron Smith and centre Malakai Fekitoa, means Sopoaga is unlikely to have too many conversion attempts.
The Highlanders will host the Hurricanes at 7.35pm while the Force will take on the Brumbies at 11 tonight.
