Head to Head


In six previous encounters, the Waratahs have won on five occasions, including by five points at home earlier this season.

Fijian Drua Form


Fijian Drua are having their worst season since joining Super Rugby. In eight matches, they have one win and seven defeats in eight matches.

The opening four weeks didn’t go too badly for Drua, although the results were not ideal. They lost by four points to the Brumbies and Hurricanes and then by five to the Waratahs. In their fourth game, Fijian Dura defeated the Chiefs 28-24 at home.

However, they then lost comfortably away to the Brumbies and Western Force before losing 31-14 at home to the Crusaders. Last week, the Drua lost 43-20 away to the Highlanders.

Fijian Drua Injuries & Team News


Fijian Drua will be very eager to get a home win under the belt to get some momentum going. Expect a full-strength side from them.

Waratahs Form


The Waratahs are having a strong season considering that they finished bottom of the table in 2024. They are currently fifth on the table with five wins and three losses.

However, all five wins for the Tahs’ have been on home soil while away from home they’ve struggled, losing all three fixtures by convincing margins. They lost 35-15 to the Reds, 45-28 to Moana and 57-12 to the Hurricanes, all away from home.

Last week the Waratahs were in impressive form at home again, beating the Chiefs 21-14. Going by how this season has gone, this weekend will be a very tough fixture for the Tahs’.

Waratahs Injuries & Team News


The Waratahs have been superb at home, but on the road they have struggled. Expect them to make some changes ahead of this encounter.

Verdict

I am backing Fijian Drua to get their second win of the season by covering the -5.5 handicap comfortably.
