Saints take on Catalans Dragons on Saturday (5pm UK time) in Betfred Super League Round 7 at the Stade Gilbert Brutus and you can read all of the pre match news below.
BACKGROUND…
The Dragons will welcome 1,000 fans against the Saints thanks to the further lifting of lockdown restrictions over in France.
The Dragons will be looking to contunue their impressive start to the new campaign which recently included a fine 10-27 victory over Hull FC last week.
Saints arrive into this one on the back of a 28-0 victory over Salford in the Super League Round 6 in front of our fans which maintained our unbeaten start to 2021. The reigning Super League champions are currently top of the Super League with only 34 points conceded in 6 games.
But Kristian Woolf’s men will have to cope with the best attack of the Super League as the Dragons have scored 164 points this season so far.
