THE PREDICTION
In one of ties of the Rival Round of the Super League sees Warrington Wolves face off against leaders Catalan Dragons. The Wolves come into this tough test having lost unexpectedly to Wakefield last weekend and they cannot afford to play as poorly if they are to get anything from this game. They paid the price against Wakefield for a slow start and despite a strong second half, they ultimately did not have enough and anything but their best will see them on the losing end here too. They will surely react from that loss and bounce back here however and that should ensure a close hard-fought game. They have also done incredibly well the Dragons this season having won the reverse fixture and then in the Challenge Cup. While the Dragons are playing relatively well and will be desperate to halt this losing run against them, the motivation to bounce back along with their previous meetings sees us lean towards the home side in this one.
