St. Helens vs Warrington Wolves prediction
A key game for both these two Super League heavy hitters, but particularly for St. Helens who will not want to get cut adrift from those around the top of the table. Drawing parity with Warrington Wolves represents a positive step, but to do that they must win this game. Saints have struggled recently, losing their last two on the road but you should see a much-improved team at home.
Warrington Wolves are looking for a fourth straight win and boast a backline that have given up just 32 points across those last three victories, that’s an average of under 11 points per match. It’s that solidarity that could prove the difference between these two teams and with the absence of Hastings, it may just tip the scales in the Wire’s favour.
