THE TEAM NEWS

CASTLEFORD TIGERS

  • Castleford Tigers continued their winless start to the Super League season as they were tamely beaten by Leeds Rhinos in dreadful conditions last week.
  • It is hard to see where the Tigers’ first win comes from based on their efforts to date and limited options to change their 17 with just one alteration to this week’s squad with Sylvester Namo replacing Albert Vete.

21-MAN SQUAD: Simm, Broadbent, Wood, Senior, Richardson, Miller, Watts, McShane, Lawler, El-Zakhem, Mellor, Westerman, Horne, Hodson, Hall, Namo, Robb, Martin, Kibula, Johnson, Hindmarsh-Takyi

SALFORD RED DEVILS

  • Salford Red Devils put their Challenge Cup nightmare behind them as they ran out relatively convincing winners against Leigh Leopards.
  • The scoreline looked a lot closer than it probably should have been but the Red Devils were superb in the first half in particular and have received a boost with Nene Macdonald named in the 21 despite limping off last week.

21-MAN SQUAD: Brierley, Ryan, Macdonald, Lafai, Cross, Cust, Sneyd, Bourouh, Vuniyayawa, Stone, Watkins, Partington, Atkin, Wright, Shorrocks, Ormondroyd, Dixon, Foster, Mellor, Nofoaluma

THE PREDICTION

Castleford Tigers have been wretched for most of the season and their performances will need to significantly improve if they are to claim their maiden win of the campaign. They come up against a Salford Red Devils side that played really well for most of their contest with Leigh Leopards and Marc Sneyd’s kicking game is likely to cause some real issues for the Tigers which should lead to an away win.

TIP: SALFORD RED DEVILS -6
