St. Helens vs Catalans Dragons Prediction
St. Helens have won just one of their last five games in all competitions and boss Paul Wellens continues to face calls from Saints fans to step aside. They did manage to defeat Catalans Dragons in their last encounter, winning a tense one 14-13 in Perpignan. That result underlines how even these sides are in terms of quality with nothing currently separating them points-wise.
But although the Dragons lost on Magic Weekend, they’ve been playing better than St. Helens and a fast start here could prove worth its weight in gold as an irritated home crowd may well end up turning on their out-of-form team. With that in mind, there is genuine value in backing a Catalans Dragons victory at the Totally Wicked Stadium.
