The Bulls have picked a strong side to travel to Parma, Italy, for their next United Rugby Championship (URC) fixture against Zebre Parma on Friday, February 25.
The game will begin at 19:30 local time.
The team will depart South Africa on Monday and arrive in Italy on Tuesday, where they will continue their preparations for their first encounter outside of South Africa since October.
Bulls have struggled in the URC this season
The Bulls will go into the match without the services of experienced flyhalf Morne Steyn who will be serving the first of his three-match ban following a red card in the Bulls’ previous fixture against the Sharks.
After an up-and-down season to date, the Bulls find themselves in 12th place in the 16-team standings with 18 points after nine matches.
Zebre Parma have proven to be the whipping boys to date and boast just one point from their seven matches to date.
