An intriguing battle awaits in this match with Jaguares riding high after winning their last 3 matches on tour including their first win over New Zealand opposition. Meanwhile, the Chiefs come off the back of a bye weekend, the Waikato based franchise are yet to lose a match at home this and will be looking to maintain that record as well as keep the pressure on the other New Zealand franchises in a tightly fought conference.
