Castleford Tigers vs Huddersfield Giants Prediction
We should see a much-improved showing from Huddersfield Giants compared to what we saw in Perpignan last time out as they were ‘nilled’ by Catalans Dragons. With Swift and Wilson back in the fold, the Giants immediately look stronger and against a side who’ve lost four of their last five games, they have every reason to be confident of success here.
Castleford Tigers though, did look a lot better against the formidable Warriors, but with the onus on them to take the fight to Huddersfield at home, pressure could be a factor with a bad start likely causing restlessness among the crowd. The Giants showed vs Warrington Wolves that they can perform on the road and backing them to beat the Tigers should be seriously considered.
