Castleford Tigers have managed to win just one of their last five matches and run into an in-form Hull KR side here. The visitors will be hoping to make it four straight victories as they aim to win on the road for just the fourth time this season and while Cas put up a decent fight against Wigan Warriors last week, they will need to find more if they are to topple Rovers.
