In the lead-up to this week's matchup, the Warriors are experiencing a revival after a rough 2024 season.
Led by halves Luke Metcalf and Chanel Harris-Tavita, they have secured victories in five of their last six matches following an initial loss to the Raiders in Las Vegas.
As they approach Magic Round, the Warriors are brimming with confidence.
On the other hand, the Cowboys are also riding high.
They demonstrated remarkable prowess by scoring seven tries in just 33 minutes against the Titans during Round 8, completely dominating the second half.
The Cowboys have a memorable history at Magic Round, highlighted by Murray Taulagi's stunning pass to Scott Drinkwater, which secured a victory against the Wests Tigers in 2023.
A similar moment of brilliance could be crucial for them as they aim for a fifth consecutive win.
