Both Ross Ford and Mike Blair have been selected to start for the British and Irish Lions against the Southern Kings on Tuesday in Port Elizabeth (kick off 2pm UK time, live on Sky Sports). The Lions have won their opening five matches of the tour so far and this is the final warm-up match before the first Test against world champions, South Africa.

Edinburgh captain Blair still has to pass a late fitness test on an ankle injury while Ford makes his second start of the campaign in the number two jersey. Now Edinburgh have almost as many Lions as the nearby Zoo on Corstorphine Road and you can watch them replicate their heroics in the Black and Red next season at a great value price.
