Castleford Tigers vs Hull KR prediction

Castleford Tigers will not have their head coach in the building for this game, with Director of Rugby Chris Chester set to take charge of the hosts. The home side are coming off the back of two damaging defeats which saw their defence obliterated on both occasions. They conceded exactly 100 points over the course of those two matches.

That doesn’t bode well ahead of this Hull KR showdown. Willie Peters’s side have put up 74 points across their last two, both of which ended in comfortable victories. The visitors boast the attacking firepower to blow away an underperforming Castleford and the expectation is that they will do just that.
