FAQs: Lions vs Bulls
How can I watch Lions vs Bulls live?
You can watch Lions vs Bulls live stream on Surprise Stream (surprisestream.com). This is a live-sports streaming service that offers a free preview before subscribing. That preview lets you try the service before paying; it is not a guarantee of Lions vs Bulls coverage.
When does Lions vs Bulls kick off?
Lions vs Bulls is scheduled for Saturday, October 10, 2026, with kickoff at 12:30 p.m. UK time. That time is for the United Rugby Championship meeting between the teams on October 10.
Where is Lions vs Bulls being played?
The match will be played at Loftus Versfeld. That is the venue for the October 10 meeting between the Bulls and Lions, with the Bulls facing the Lions there in Round 3.
Which competition is this match part of?
This is a United Rugby Championship match in Round 3. The Bulls and Lions meet as part of that round of the competition, rather than in a separate tournament or exhibition game.
When will the official squads be available?
The official squads are expected to become available around 24 to 48 hours before kickoff. For this Saturday match, that means fans can expect the squad announcements roughly between Thursday and Friday.
Can the teams change their squads after announcing them?
Yes. The teams can still make changes up to an hour before the match. An initial squad announcement is therefore not necessarily final, even when it arrives in the usual 24-to-48-hour period before kickoff.
