THE TEAM NEWS

CASTLEFORD TIGERS

  • Castleford Tigers’ winless start to the season continued as they were comfortably defeated by Warrington Wolves last week and that is now five straight losses dating back to last year.
  • The Tigers have largely struggled with the ball so far this campaign but they could add some size to their team with off-season signing Sylvester Namo named in the squad for the first time.

21-MAN SQUAD: Hooley, Simm, Broadbent, Wood, Senior, Miller, Lawler, El-Zakhem, Mellor, Westerman, Horne, Milnes, Putt, Hall, Namo, Tasipale, Robb, Martin, Kibula, Vete, Johnson

HUDDERSFIELD GIANTS

  • Huddersfield Giants were unable to get the better of defending champions Wigan Warriors to make it successive losses in Super League.
  • The Giants threatened a second half comeback but the damage was done having trailed 18-0. They will hope to get off to a better start here and welcome back Luke Yates while Harry Rushton could return from an ACL injury.

21-MAN SQUAD: Connor, Swift, Marsters, Naiqama, Lolohea, Clune, Hill, Murchie, Hewitt, Yates, Golding, Rushton, Wilson, Ikahihifo, Deakin, Wallis, Cudjoe, Livett, Russell, Halsall, Salabio

THE PREDICTION

Castleford Tigers look well short of where they need to be after three matches and their winless win could continue here as they take on Huddersfield Giants. The away side are also yet to hit their straps in 2024 but finished strongly against Wigan Warriors last week and they should have enough quality to get the better of the home side in this one.
