THE PREDICTION
This is an important game in the context of the race to make the
play-offs with Hull FC hosting Castleford Tigers. The Black and Whites
come into this on the back of a thrilling victory over local rivals Hull
KR which ended their losing streak at four matches but it will count
for little unless they back it up here. Cas on the other hand arrive in
good form having won their last three which has put them within the cusp
of breaking into the top six. This should be a nervy affair with both
teams desperate to avoid defeat and that can lead to a contest which
produces under 43.5 points.
