THE PREDICTION
Castleford Tigers continued their late charge towards a spot in the
play-offs with a fourth successive victory over top six rivals Hull FC.
That win saw the Tigers leapfrog their opponents and they can solidify
their position with another victory here against struggling Wigan
Warriors. The away side’s attacking issues continued as they were kept
scoreless by Leeds Rhinos last week and they have now lost their last
three. Their spot in the play-offs is starting to come under threat and
with another loss expected here, the writing could be on the wall for
the Warriors.
