The 2025 NRL season's Round 20 clash sees the Canterbury Bulldogs face off against the St. George Illawarra Dragons on Saturday evening at the Accor Stadium in Sydney.

The Bulldogs have a 12-4 record and are tied on 30 points with the second-placed Storm. However, they are currently third on the ladder with a low points difference of 96 compared to Melbourne's 220.

With four more home games left at the Accor Stadium, the Bulldogs will be confident with a wave of blue and white supporters backing them in Sydney. 

The Dragons are in 11th place, four points behind the top eight, but they have a negative points difference of -56. Their failure to clinch tight games has made things difficult, as they have lost five games by a margin of six points or less.

However, not all hope is lost. They still have a chance of making it to the finals if they can get on a dominant run from here on. That will have to begin now, firstly by taking on one of the in-form sides, Bulldogs, at a venue where they have never won since 2019.

The Sporting News is on hand to bring you all the latest TV, scheduling, and live streaming information ahead of this match.
