THE PREDICTION
Huddersfield Giants handed Luke Robinson the victory in his opening game in interim charge and he will hope his side can build on that as they take on Castleford Tigers. Both teams will be eager to earn the win to stay in touch with the top four but for the Tigers, they will have to show some big improvements on their previous outing against Hull FC. They looked tired in that Challenge Cup loss and although they should be fresh following a week off, they are missing some key players for this clash. Lee Gaskell’s potential return for the Giants could be pivotal and if he is fit enough to line-up alongside Aidan Sezer in the halves, that playmaking quality should give Huddersfield the edge in this one.
