The St George Illawarra Dragons will be looking to carry the momentum from their thrilling comeback win last week into their match against the Gold Coast Titans.

The Titans, on the other hand, will be hoping to bounce back after a reality check against the Sydney Roosters in Round 5.

In their previous match, the Dragons secured a 20-16 victory over the Wests Tigers with two tries in the final three minutes.

Despite a sluggish start, Jamie Soward's team showed resilience and determination to secure their second win of the season.

Facing the Titans will be another tough challenge for the Dragons, as they have already played against two other top-four teams this year.

This early exposure to tough competition should leave the Dragons battle-hardened and ready for the challenge.

Meanwhile, the Titans got a taste of the level they need to reach in order to be competitive this season in their 30-8 loss to the Roosters.

Although there were some positive moments for Karyn Murphy's side, they struggled to contain the Roosters' attack and had defensive lapses that led to tries.

Looking at the head-to-head history between these two teams, the Dragons have been dominant, winning all three of their previous encounters against the Titans.

This track record will surely boost the confidence of the Dragons heading into the match.

Overall, this game promises to be an exciting clash between two teams with different aspirations.

The Dragons will be aiming to continue their winning streak, while the Titans will be looking to bounce back and prove themselves against a strong opponent.
