North Wales Crusaders return to League 1 action tomorrow as they travel to Hunslet.
Below is all the information you need to know ahead of the clash.
UP FRONT
Crusaders will be aiming to get their play-off push back on track after suffering two successive defeats.
With a depleted squad, North Wales gave Oldham a good run for their money a couple of weeks ago, but they came out on the wrong end of a 46-30 scoreline.
In their last outing, Anthony Murray’s men lost 30-0 at home to Doncaster, despite having plenty of field position, as they struggled to break down a dogged defensive line.
Hunslet, meanwhile, head into the clash on the back of a 19-12 defeat to top-of-the-table Whitehaven last weekend.
Before that, they had won four out of their seven matches in the league.
LAST TIME OUT (CRUSADERS 12-22 HUNSLET – MARCH 2019)
When Crusaders hosted Hunslet in the early stages of the 2019 campaign, the visitors had enough to get past the Wrexham side, winning 22-12.
After Hunslet had established a 14-0 lead within the opening 23 minutes, Widnes Vikings’ Sam Freeman hit back for Crusaders to reduce the deficit to eight points heading into half-time.
A penalty goal and try then put the Yorkshire 22-6 ahead and, despite Elliott Jenkins’ try giving North Wales a sniff, the away side held on reasonably comfortably for the two points.
