The context
Catalans Dragons are back in action on Saturday 24th April to host Warrington Wolves at Brutus, kick-off at 6pm CET. Match live on beIN SPORTS 3 and Sky Sports.
The Dragons have done a stunning start of the season with 4 wins in a row. Thanks to back-to-back victories in England and a hardworking performance over Salford last week in Perpignan, the Catalans are three from three in Super League with 91 points scored, the best attack in Super League along with Castleford after 3 games.
The Wolves are currently 6 out of 12 in Super League with 1 win, 1 defeat and 1 draw. Warrington showed some great resolve against Hull FC last Sunday. A Jake Mamo try on the full time hooter took them to golden point in a game they could have won, but finished with a draw.
Both teams will face each other once again on Friday 7th May in the Challenge Cup Quarter-Finals.
