The Cheetahs have named a 25-man squad for their Pro14 match against the Glasgow Warriors at Scotstoun Stadium on Saturday.
The Bloemfontein-based franchise will be without suspended duo Ox Nche and Nico Lee.
Lee will miss the rest of the Pro14 season after being slapped with a 13-week suspension for clearing his nose on an opposition player.
Nche is also set for a long spell on the sidelines after receiving an eight-week suspension for a dangerous challenge. The Cheetahs are, however, appealing his ban, with the hearing set to take place in Cardiff on Friday.
Cheetahs – Aranos Coetzee, Justin Basson, Eric de Jager, Luan de Bruin, JP du Preez, Joseph Dweba, Louis Fouche, Malcolm Jaer, Benhard Janse van Rensburg, Sintu Manjezi, Charles Marais, Daniel Maartens, Rabz Maxwane, Tian Meyer, Abongile Nonkontwana, Rudy Paige, Junior Pokomela, Tian Schoeman, William Small-Smith, Walt Steenkamp, Dries Swanepoel, Marnus van der Merwe, Henco Venter, Reinach Venter, Shaun Venter.
