The Knights are on a winning streak and are aiming for their fifth consecutive victory as they face off against the Dolphins, who suffered a heartbreaking loss against the Bulldogs, causing them to drop out of contention.

Currently sitting in 14th place and struggling after a defeat against Penrith in Round 17, the Knights, led by the talented Kalyn Ponga, have managed to secure wins against the Bulldogs, Wests Tigers, Storm, and Raiders, bringing them within one point of the top eight.

Ponga has been instrumental in their recent success, contributing seven try assists, 26 tackle breaks, and 54 points in these four games, showcasing his exceptional skills.

On the other hand, the Dolphins possess their own array of attacking weapons but appeared out of sync in their recent match against the Bulldogs, as their handling errors and poor decision-making on the last tackle proved costly.

Despite starting the season strongly and defeating formidable opponents such as the Roosters, Raiders, Cowboys, and Sharks, Wayne Bennett's team will be eager to avoid a late decline that could tarnish their debut season.
