The historic Super Rugby clash between the Gallagher Chiefs and the BNZ Crusaders is here.

The Suva showdown will also determine who goes on to finish in the all‑important top spot in the New Zealand conference.

The Crusaders lead the points table with 45 points while the Chiefs are second with 42 points.

In their opening round match in Christchurch in February, the Chiefs beat the Crusaders 27‑21. 

Chiefs coach Dave Rennie said they are ready to take on the Crusaders.

Meanwhile Crusaders coach Todd Blackadder said they are looking forward to the challenge.

The ANZ Stadium is expected to have a record crowd tonight as tickets have been sold out.

Temporary stands have been constructed beside the grandstand to accommodate another 1,000 spectators.

The Chiefs will host the Crusaders at 7.35 tonight at the ANZ Stadium.
