Bradford Bulls vs Wigan Warriors prediction
Nothing could motivate Wigan Warriors more than Leeds Rhinos’ surprise slip-up this past Thursday night. The race for the League Leaders Shield has taken a twist on the back of that result and now it’s up to Matt Peet’s side to take advantage. The visitors haven’t lost in any competition since May 21st, an incredible run of 11 straight victories.
Bradford Bulls have lost their last four, giving up 40 points or more on all bar one occasion. Their latest defeat was a real hammering, Warrington Wolves beating them 4-42 at Odsal. Whilst shock results can certainly happen, this Wigan side should be locked in and laser-focused. They’ve been ruthless for a long time now and are expected to be so again this weekend.
