The close results in the last four games Northland has played so far with Nadroga has given coach Watisoni Ratulevu hope that they can create an upset in their the BSP Farebrother Sullivan Trophy challenge on Saturday.
Under the leadership of Ratulevu, Northland has beaten teams like Suva, Tailevu, Naitasiri, Nadi and Lautoka but has so far come close to beating Nadroga on many occasions.
In 2007, Nadroga beat Northland 30 points to 24, again in 2008 the Stallions just edged them 20 points to 17 but last year, they reduced the gap to two points when Nadroga won 22-20 at Lawaqa Park and this season Northland lost 27-28.
Ratulevu said that Northland's last game against Nadroga has given him a lot of faith in that his players can deliver the results on Saturday.
Nadroga will take on Northland on Saturday at 4pm and you can catch a live commentary on our sister station Viti FM.
