THE PREDICTION
Wigan Warriors have largely been in good form since the return to action and with Warrington and Saints meeting in another quarter-final, they will be confident of going all the way in this competition. They will have to overcome a Hull FC side that have won their last two matches against Wakefield and Castleford. Wigan have won six of their last seven matches but prior to their 26-12 win earlier this season, the previous four matches were all decided by a margin of four points or less. This could be another close game that Wigan win, but Hull can cover the +8 handicap.
