Wakefield Trinity vs Toulouse prediction
Wakefield Trinity are often down the bottom end of the Super League table whenever they compete at this level, so to finish sixth-place in 2025 represents real progress and now they boast a significant opportunity to build on that and establish themselves as consistent playoff challengers. Especially when taking into account the business they’ve conducted in the off-season, bringing in the likes of Australian Tyson Smoothy to strengthen them further.
Toulouse won’t be seen as a likely playoff candidate heading into this campaign but as we saw from York Knights on the opening evening of the new season, write off the newbies at your peril! They have little to lose and everything to gain moving forward although the likelihood is that it will take them a period of time to adapt to playing such a high level of Rugby League week-after-week, such is the relentless nature of Super League. Therefore, back Wakefield to pick up the points in this one.
