The fixture begins at 14:30 local time.
Lions have been poor throughout the competition and were once again well beaten in their last match. If someone can support Reeza Hendricks with the bat then they will be competitive in this match.
Knights came up against the irrepressible Western Province on Friday and were no match for them. They should find the opponents in this game more charitable.
