The Vodacom Bulls will face Edinburgh in their EPCR Challenge Cup quarterfinal in the Scottish capital on Saturday.
Edinburgh booked their place by ousting the Emirates Lions on Friday night while the Bulls beat Bayonne in an epic performance in front of a highly-partisan crowd.
The Bulls will be looking for a victory against Sean Everitt’s side, and it will pit Jake White against the same coach who was his assistant recently after Everitt was fired by the Sharks.
Lyon, who beat the Sharks on Sunday night, will face Welsh side Ospreys, while Connacht will host Racing 92 in the third quarterfinal.
Former Springbok assistant coach Johann van Graan’s Bath side are also in the quarters, but will face fellow English side Gloucester at home in the fourth quarterfinal.
