Huddersfield Giants vs Wakefield Trinity prediction
Wakefield Trinity were narrow losers in their opening game, edged out at home 16-18 by Toulouse in what was a really disappointing outcome for Daryl Powell, who will have no doubt been hard at work with his squad over this past week to turn things around quickly following such a defeat. Huddersfield Giants travelled over to Perpignan and got dominated by Catalans Dragons, in the end losing 26-10 and also need to improve quickly.
When taking into account the injuries that are plaguing the Giants, this is a big opportunity for Wakefield who on paper, you could argue may just have the better defence compared to that of Huddersfield. If they can clean things up and improve their cutting edge going forward, then Wakefield are well placed to secure what would be an important away win.
