Lions face off against Bulls in United Rugby Championship Round 6 on Sat 5th December 2026 at Ellis Park. Kick-off in the UK is scheduled for 12:30 and is broadcast on Premier Sports. In South Africa it’s at 14:30 SAST on SuperSport, 01:30 NZST on URC TV in New Zealand, 23:30 AEST on URC TV in Australia and 04:30 EST on Flo Rugby in the US.
Bulls won the last encounter but Bulls are in the best form of their last 5 games.
Heading into the fixture the two sides are separated by 6 places in the league table with Bulls in 1st and Lions in 7th as such Bulls are favourites on paper.
The official squads for Lions vs Bulls will become available around 24- 48 hours before kick-off. Teams can still make changes up to an hour before the match however.
