Match Preview | Trip to Batley Bulldogs awaits this Sunday

28/05/2024

Sheffield Eagles start of the month of June this weekend with a trip to the Fox’s Biscuits Stadium to take on Batley Bulldogs (3pm).

Mark Aston’s men will look to make it back-to-back wins in the Betfred Championship this weekend after we returned to winning ways last Friday night with a 36-13 victory over Dewsbury Rams.

Batley head into Sunday’s game on the back of a dramatic 21-20 victory over Bradford Bulls after a late Josh Woods drop goal, and they’ll head into this weekend’s game hoping to also make it back-to-back league wins just like the Eagles.
