1. Opta Facts

 The Bulls have averaged the fewest metres (317) and defenders beaten (11.6) in the competition this term. They also opt to kick the ball more often than any other side having averaged 33.6 kicks from hand per game. Conversely, the Chiefs have averaged the highest gain in six rounds in (512m).

 The Chiefs’ scrum success rate (94%) is the best in the competition so far, but their lineout is the worst (70%).

 The Chiefs are the only side yet to concede a try from a possession that originated from within their opponents’ half.

 The Bulls have won four of their last five against the Chiefs but did suffer defeat in their most recent meeting in 2012.

 That run of wins for the Bulls included a 61-17 win in the 2009 final. Only once have they ever scored more points in a Super Rugby match (93-3 vs Reds in May 2007).
