Zebre head coach Andrea Cavinato is eyeing revenge over Treviso after they inflicted a 20-15 RaboDirect PRO12 defeat on his side last time out. Mat Berquist kicked ten points in total, including a late penalty, to help secure the win that ended Treviso’s eight-game losing run in all tournaments. Cornelius van Zyl and Manoa Vosawai scored a try apiece for the hosts at Stadio Monigo, while Zebre saw Marco Bortolami and Dries van Schalkwyk cross the whitewash and fly-half Luciano Orquera kick five points. Zebre did gain a second successive losing bonus point during the defeat in Treviso on Saturday, and have gained more league points on the road this season than they have at home. The two sides have met on three previous occasions with Treviso winning each encounter and Zebre gaining two losing bonus points along the way. But Cavinato is confident of turning the tables on their compatriots – he said: “We want it to be a revenge for all purposes. "We want to win this game with all our strength and our will. “Our several players' absences should not be an excuse, but a motivation to go beyond our limits. We hope that what we saw last week in Treviso doesn't have to be repeated.” Treviso are attempting to achieve back to back victories in the RaboDirect PRO12 for the first time since Christmas last year, also against Zebre. There will be four changes from the last clash, with new head coach Marius Goosen opting for Angelo Esposito on the wing, moving Luke McLean to full-back, while Tobie Botes starts at scrum-half. Dean Budd is also back after a hand injury suffered last Saturday by Manoa Vosawai and at prop Michele Rizzo starts, with Alberto De Marchi on the bench. At Stadio Aprile XXV, 3pm (local time).
