THE PREDICTION
Castleford Tigers cannot wait for the season to end with head coach Daryl Powell declaring that before last week’s heavy loss to Hull FC. That defeat will have done little to improve his mood with his side now losing eight of their last nine matches in all competitions. They have not adapted to the restart having earned just one win and time is running out for them to improve on that figure. Hull KR have also struggled throughout the course of the season but did manage to earn a rare win in their latest outing. They overcame Salford Red Devils and while it was not a vintage performance, they can build on that and capitalise on Cas’ struggles by utilising their +10 start on the handicap.
