Catalans Dragons vs Salford Red Devils Prediction
The last time these two teams clashed was in the Challenge Cup, with Catalans Dragons coming out on top at home. Catalans proved simply too strong for Salford, despite a valiant effort from the visitors, who ultimately fell short by 20 points to 12. Since then, things have got worse for Salford, who were ‘nilled’ by Leeds Rhinos last time out back in Super League.
The expectation is that this match should prove more comfortable for the Dragons, especially from an attacking perspective against a side who have struggled badly and looked out of their depth many times. Salford’s defence is likely to prove no match for their opposition and any outcome other than a comprehensive win here for Catalans would be considered a big shock.
