Wakefield Trinity vs Leigh Leopards prediction
Leigh Leopards getting a much-needed victory on the board in the Challenge Cup most recently will have hopefully served as a huge confidence boost for their squad and built some momentum which they can now take back into their Super League campaign. Adrian Lam’s side have lost their last three league games, whilst opponents Wakefield Trinity have won three of their last four in all competitions.
Whilst Wakefield are in much better form, they’ve been beaten at home once already this season and have struggled to score points on their own ground, accumulating just 30 points across their two home Super League fixtures so far this campaign. Combine that with the nous of Adrian Lam and there is good value in backing Leigh to pull off an away win.
Wakefield Trinity vs Leigh Leopards tip: Leigh Leopards to win
