THE TEAM NEWS
CATALANS DRAGONS
- Catalans Dragons secured the League Leaders’ Shield in the most unlikely of circumstances as they fought back from an 18-point deficit in the final ten minutes of their clash with St. Helens last week.
- The Dragons forced golden point thanks to three late tries before completing their turnaround with James Maloney slotting the winning field goal to seal the French outfit’s spot at the top of the table.
21-man squad: Mourgue, Davies, Whare, Maloney, Drinkwater, Dudson, McIlorum, Whitley, Jullien, Seguier, Goudemand, Laguerre, Le Cam, Cozza, Baitieri, Dezaria, Rouge, Franco, Vailhen, T. Chan, Brochon
HUDDERSFIELD GIANTS
- Huddersfield Giants produced a poor display as they were outperformed by Wakefield Trinity last week and they will be desperate to put that behind them as they aim to end the season on a positive note.
- The Giants have lost four of their last five matches and now face a difficult clash against the Dragons, a side that have already got the better of them on their two previous clashes so far this season.
19-man squad: Golding, McGillvary, Ja. Wardle, Leutele, Lawrence, Jones, English, Greenwood, Cogger, McQueen, Wilson, Cudjoe, Russell, Senior, Trout, Ashall-Bott, Pryce, Peteru, Peats
THE PREDICTION
Catalans Dragons sealed top spot in the Super League with an
enthralling success against St. Helens last week and they have taken the
opportunity to rest some key men after that victory. They have named a
squad with plenty of inexperienced players included but they still have
plenty of talent and they will believe that they can record yet another
success. They have already beaten Huddersfield Giants twice this season
and having lost four of their last five matches, the away side have it
all to do here with Catalans able to win by at least 12 points.
