Worcester Match Information

12/12/2019

Dragons take on Gallagher Premiership side Worcester Warriors at Rodney Parade Friday evening (kick-off 8pm) as the Men of Gwent aim to return to winning ways in the European Challenge Cup.

Dragons, down to fourteen men for over an hour, picked up a bonus point at Sixways last Saturday in a six point defeat, so will be looking to avenge that result this week.

However, Warriors have started the season in good form and beat Quins and Enisei away last month, only suffering defeat at Castres so far in this year’s competition.

Did you know?

  • The Dragons and Worcester have met on three occasions in the Challenge Cup with the home side on the day winning each encounter.
  • The Dragons have lost their last five games against Premiership opposition in the Challenge Cup, although their last such win came at home to Worcester in Round 4 in 2016/17

Tickets remain on sale by clicking HERE or from the Ticket Office right until kick-off on the day! Advance discount prices end at midnight tonight.
