The match
The Dragons host Hull KR on Friday at the Gilbert Brutus Stadium for the Super League Round 15, kick-off at 7.15pm CET.
Thanks to their comfortable win over Wakefield last week, the Dragons are back in the race for the Top 4. With two victories in a row, Sam Kasiano’s teammates will want to keep the club's momentum. Following yesterday’s win against Hull FC, Leeds Rhinos is now 4th of the Super League but the Dragons have the possibility to overtake Leeds with a win on Friday.
Hull KR have won only 2 games out of 12 and are currently second-last of the Super League with a 16.67% win rate.
