Head to Head


Chiefs have won their last seven matches against the Western Force.

Chiefs Form


The Chiefs come into round 11 of Super Rugby at the top of the table. They have 32 points with seven wins and two defeats in nine matches.

Both defeats have been away from home against Fijian Drua and the Waratahs. Other than that, the Chiefs have a perfect record.

Last week, the Chiefs were too good for the Highlanders at home, winning the game 46-10.

Western Force Form


The Western Force have surprised many with their strong performances in 2025, although they are far more competitive at home than away. They are fifth on the table with four wins, a draw and four losses.

Over the last two games, the Force are unbeaten. They defeated the Highlanders 29-20 at home at that start of April before enjoying a bye weekend.

Last week, the Perth-based outfit returned to action with a 17-17 draw on home soil against the Hurricanes. While that game could have gone either way, the Force will be pleased they held on in the end.
