The Lions coaching staff are due to announce their team today for this weekend's second test against South Africa in Pretoria.

Head coach Ian McGeechan is expected to make a number of changes from the side that lost the first test in Durban last Saturday.

Another defeat for the visitors this weekend would see South Africa winning the test series with a game to spare.
