Flanker Jordy Reid and prop Paul Alo-Emile will make their starting debut in Super Rugby, as The Rebels have named both players in the team that will take on the Cheetahs in Bloemfontein.
The Rebels recorded their first and only victory this year when they beat the Force in what was a promising start to the season and aside from the Brumbies looked competitive in all four their derby matches, before going down in a humiliating victory last week.
To pile onto this disappointing result, two of their players has been sent home after a fight on the team bus after a visit to a night club.
The Rebels will be looking to redeem themselves this week, but will be going up against an in form and motivated Cheetahs side.
