Zebre and Benetton meet again in United Rugby Championship play, with recent history strongly favoring the visitors. 

Benetton has won each of the last five meetings between the Italian rivals, including their most recent encounter just last week, when Benetton secured a 21-15 victory. 

In that match, Benetton struck first with a penalty goal in the 16th minute and maintained the lead throughout, though Zebre remained within striking distance until the final stages.

Recent form further underscores the challenge facing the hosts. 

Zebre has won just one of its last five matches, a 41-17 victory over Montauban in Round 1 of the Challenge Cup. Outside of that result, converting competitive performances into wins has remained difficult. 

Benetton, meanwhile, arrives in strong form, riding a three-match winning streak that began with a 26-18 victory over the Lions in Challenge Cup play and has continued through successive weeks.

With Stadio Sergio Lanfranchi hosting this latest installment of the rivalry, Zebre will look to turn close contests into a breakthrough result. 

Benetton aims to extend its dominance and continue building momentum as the URC schedule moves forward.
