Highlanders vs Crusaders 2020 Super Rugby Aotearoa stream

The Blues haven't won in Hamilton since 2011 and have only beaten the Chiefs once since then - last year at Eden Park - but will chase their fifth straigh road win tonight.

There's a sense that coach Leon MacDonald has finally turned their fortunes around and the addition of All Blacks star Beauden Barrett to the playing roster may be the missing piece that takes them all the way in the revamped NZ-based format.

He will make his second start for the Blues at fullback tonight, with incumbent Otere Black retaining the No.10 jersey, after his starring role in last week's victory over the Hurricanes.
