There are four changes to the DHL Western Province forward pack for their Carling Currie Cup encounter with Airlink Pumas in Nelspruit on Friday night.

Three of the changes are in the front row and the other is at lock, while the backline is unchanged for the meeting with the Mpumalanga side, which kicks off at 19h00 on Friday.
