Hull KR half-back Michael Dobson sees no reason why they cannot give Wigan Warriors a run for their money in Friday's clash.
It was been a season of struggle so far for Craig Sandercock's men with the East Yorkshire club winning only five of their 12 league games.
Meanwhile, Wigan are flying high in the Stobart Super League table and can move top at the DW Stadium with success over Hull KR.
Former Warriors man Dobson is disappointed the team are not higher in the table, highlighting their inconsistency as the problem.
"We've shown on our day when we play well we can match any team in the competition," commented Dobson.
"We're disappointed we're not higher on the ladder. We've been inconsistent and let a few games slip.
"We've also had few a injuries but every team gets them and we're now getting close to full strength. In the last few weeks we've been playing some good footie."
Hull KR have lost seven straight to Wigan, including a 40-6 defeat in last season's corresponding fixture, and Dobson is expecting a stern test from Shaun Wane's men.
"They are always strong," he continued. "Their attack has probably improved a bit this year.
"They're always strong in defence and they're starting to hit their straps now. They're a very consistent team so we know it's going to be tough."
