The Melbourne Storm will be looking to create history this week by becoming the first side in the NRL to win 20 games in a row.

The Storm who equaled the record set by the Eastern Suburbs way back in 1975 will take on the Eels this Saturday.

The Eels have already suffered an early blow with Fiji Bati wing Maika Sivo ruled out due to an injury.

The Eels beat the Storm back in round 2 where it was Sivo who scored the match winning try in the dying minutes.

There are two rounds remaining in the regular season and the Storm are leading the standings with 42 points.

Last years runners up, the Panthers are second with 40 points.

The Storm will take on the Eels at 9.35pm Saturday.
