Hull FC vs Leeds Rhinos prediction
Both Hull FC and Leeds Rhinos were knocked out of the Challenge Cup last weekend, so already the Super League becomes their sole priority for the rest of the season. But it’s Hull FC fans who are likely to be a lot more worried with their team already having struggled in Super League. They’ve scored just 38 points across their last four games in all competitions, which includes single-figure tallies in two of those matches.
Leeds Rhinos meanwhile, have at least been dominant in Super League and their backline in particular deserves credit, restricting their opponents to single-figure totals in the last two Super League rounds. If the Rhinos defence plays the way we’ve seen over the course of this campaign so far, they’ll likely restrict Hull FC to a small score that the visitors should surmount, so backing an away win here looks a shrewd play.
