WAKEFIELD TRINITY
- After disappointing performances against Warrington Wolves and Castleford Tigers, Wakefield Trinity were able to respond as they overcame Wigan Warriors last week to make it four wins from their last six matches.
- Trinity defended well to keep Wigan at bay and those efforts ensured their prevailed in a low-scoring contest and Chris Chester’s side will now be going in search of another win to put them right in the mix for the top six.

THE PREDICTION
Salford Red Devils were unable to build on just their second win of
the season as they fell to a disappointing loss to Leeds Rhinos at the
weekend. They now come up against a Wakefield Trinity side that will
fancy their chances of recording another win in what would be their
fifth success in seven matches if they can come out on top. The hosts
are still missing a host of key men and that list grew following an
ill-disciplined showing last time out. Wakefield on the other hand will
hope to have Jacob Miller back in the fold and his return should only
aid the away side’s chances of making it back-to-back victories here.
