Salford Red Devils vs Castleford Tigers Prediction

All the focus has been on Castleford Tigers leading up to this game following the sacking of Danny McGuire and the effect that will have on their players. Director of Rugby Chris Chester takes charge on an interim basis and he couldn’t have hoped for a better start with rock-bottom Salford Red Devils their opponents. Although the hosts did impress last weekend in defeat to Warrington Wolves.

If Salford can replicate their most recent showing, then this won’t be easy for Castleford. But the visitors are the stronger team and will be expected to pick up victory in Chester’s first match in temporary charge.
