THE TEAM NEWS

HULL FC

  • Hull FC will perhaps point to their lack of discipline for costing them the chance at claiming a win over Catalans Dragons last week.
  • The Black and Whites were at least competitive in that game but have lost Jack Ashworth to a ban following his yellow card while fullback Jack Walker has joined a lengthy injury list.

21-MAN SQUAD: Hoy, Tindall, Tuimavave, Sutcliffe, McIntosh, F. Brown, Ese’ese, Houghton, Pele, Okunbor, Sao, Lane, Scott, Smith, J. Brown, Gardiner, Staveley, Martin, Severs, Laidlaw, Charles

LEIGH LEOPARDS

  • Leigh Leopards continued their winless start to the season as they blew a 16-point half-time lead at home to Leeds Rhinos last week, allowing 22 unanswered points in the second half.
  • The Leopards will be desperate to get off the mark for the campaign but there are injury doubts surrounding key players Tom Amone and Lachlan Lam.

21-MAN SQUAD: O’Brien, Hardaker, Leutele, Charnley, Moylan, Lam, Amone, Mulhern, O’Donnell, Hughes, Norman, Davis, Halton, Trout, Nakubuwai, Chamberlain, Holmes, McNamara, Hanley, Gannon, Dwyer

THE PREDICTION

Hull FC and Leigh Leopards have both struggled in the early part of the season with just one victory between the pair to date. Hull could not overcome Catalans Dragons in woeful conditions in Perpignan last week while Leigh looked set to claim their first win of the campaign against Leeds Rhinos until they capitulated in the second half. Points have been tough to come by for both teams so far and that could be the story of this game with a low-scoring affair expected.

TIP: UNDER 38.5 POINTS
