Huddersfield Giants vs Bradford Bulls prediction
Whilst Bradford Bulls were outclassed by Leeds Rhinos last time out, they stand a better chance against Super League’s bottom placed club who have lost 15 of their 17 league games so far this campaign. Huddersfield Giants are now cut adrift at the foot of the table and it’s hard to see them bouncing back.
Bradford Bulls have struggled on the road all season long but if there’s any place that gives them a great chance of winning, it would be Huddersfield. The hosts are a poor outfit, leaky at the back and lacking cutting edge in attack, so the Bulls simply must take advantage in this contest.
