Hull and Rovers will do battle once again in Super League’s Rival Round.

Hull FC and Hull KR will contest the 250th Hull derby on Super League Rivals Round, with the two old city rivals clashing on Good Friday at Craven Park.

First meeting in 1899, Hull and Rovers have contested 249 competitive fixtures to date, with Hull winning 124 and Rovers 115. There have been 10 draws.

Meanwhile, the 250th derby will open the Easter weekend on April 3, with two more fixtures set to take place in what will be a rip-roaring triple header of action. St Helens will host Wigan Warriors in another traditional Good Friday clash, while Bradford Bulls’ promotion back to Super League sees another big competition fixture back for the first time since 2014 as they lock horns with Leeds Rhinos at Odsal.

On Saturday (April 4), there is another triple header, with the French derby taking place as Catalans Dragons host Toulouse Olympique – the first since 2022. Elsewhere, Huddersfield Giants face York Knights and Warrington Wolves meet Leigh Leopards. On Easter Sunday (April 5), Castleford Tigers host Wakefield Trinity in the fiery West Yorkshire clash.

The rivals round will be the seventh round of the 2026 Super League season. Kick-off times will be confirmed at a later date.
