The Dragons ran in seven tries in a 48-12 win against Moseley last weekend at Old Deer Park – their sixth league win in a row – to move up to third in the table, just two points behind the Blues and with a game in hand.
But although the focus now switches back to the B&I Cup, the London Welsh full back says it’s imperative that the Dragons keep the winning habit going.
“It is a very important game for us,” said Claassens. “It’s about building momentum. This is the time we should start peaking towards the play-offs.
“Confidence wise it won’t be good for us if we slip up this weekend, so we will definitely be going out on Saturday to give Bedford a good game and go for a win.”
