Show Preview
The Crusaders have kept their perfect record in season 2019 alive with a dominant 29-point victory over the Chiefs.
Final score
Crusaders 57
Chiefs 28
Just a week after losing to the lowly Sunwolves, the Chiefs face the biggest test in Super Rugby when they travel to play the Crusaders. Join The Roar for live scores from the match, starting from 3:15pm AEDT.
Fair to say that these two sides have had rather different fortunes so far in Super Rugby season 2019.
Both played close-fought matches in Round 1 – the Chiefs going down by just three points to the Highlanders in the season opener, while the Crusaders scraped by with a two-point win over the Blues in their first match of the year.
Things have been quite different in the time since – the ‘Saders went on to comfortable wins over the Hurricanes and the Reds in the last fortnight, while the Chiefs have gone rapidly downhill.
They were smashed 17-54 by the Brumbies in Round 2 but what would have really struck fans with disbelief was last week’s dismal performance against the Sunwolves, losing 15-30.
They are one of only three teams in the comp to not have managed a win to date, and they also have the worst points differential in the competition at -55.
Prediction
It’s hard to see this being anything other than a comfortable win for the Crusaders.
