Castleford Tigers vs Salford Red Devils Prediction

Castleford Tigers are looking to hunt down a second win in three games and with victories being hard to come by for them this season, getting one here would be priceless for them. Salford Red Devils have proven the punchbag of Super League so far this season, losing nine of ten games with a whopping -331 points difference.

With home advantage in their favour, the Tigers simply must capitalise. They know Salford will put up a good fight but Castleford will be fired up after their damp squib against Wakefield Trinity last time out and are well-placed to bounce back at the first time of asking.
