The Toyota Cheetahs will travel to Amsterdam for Round 3 of the EPCR Challenge Cup to host Zebre Parma at the NRCA Stadium. The game kicks off at 15:00 (SA time) on Sunday, 12 January 2025.
From Amsterdam, the team travels to France for their next match on Saturday, 18 January, at 18:30 against Lyon to round off their pool stage fixtures.
One of the EPCR's conditions for the Toyota Cheetahs' participation in the EPCR Challenge Cup is that the team is based in Europe and will, therefore, be playing the Round 1 and 3 home games at the NRCA Stadium in Amsterdam. Free State Rugby is grateful to Rugby Nederland for sharing their home ground with another team in orange.
