Hull FC vs Huddersfield Giants prediction

Hull FC have scored just ten points across of their last two games, 28 across their last four and have registered just single figures in three of those matches. It really has been that bad defensively and things must change, starting here against bottom of the table Huddersfield Giants who have lost 11 of 13 this season.

When you factor in just how bad it’s been recently for Hull FC, this is a rare chance for the Giants to find a win. If they can keep things tight early on and frustrate the hosts then opportunities could well come their way. But neither of these two teams are good offensively, so back under 46.5 points being scored. 

Hull FC vs Huddersfield Giants tip: Under 46.5 total points
