RNO vs TUS Fantasy Team

Match Prediction
Both sides arrive searching for their first win of the current campaign, and Tuskers hold the historical head to head edge over Mpumalanga Rhinos.
Mpumalanga’s results this season have been poor, including an unusual defeat in a rain reduced match, while Tuskers have shown at least one positive result recently, their win over Lions.
Given how little separates these two sides on recent form, and the gaps in confirmed squad information, this is best treated as a close contest without a strong favourite.
