Northland will be visiting Otago for our Round 4 clash of the Mitre 10 Cup. Both teams will be eager to make it back to back wins with Northland beating Taranaki marginally 18-17 and Otago thrashing Manawatu 17-50. The last meeting between these sides, Northland came out 32-30 victors, but both teams were unable to progress past the conference semi-finals stage in 2017.
