Wakefield Trinity vs Wigan Warriors prediction

These two teams currently sit on opposite ends of the form scale right now, which heightens the excitement ahead of this tie. Whilst Wakefield Trinity are red-hot, winning their last five in all competitions which includes a 0-34 nilling of Castleford Tigers last time out, Wigan Warriors are ice-cold, following two damaging defeats. After losing at home to rock bottom Huddersfield Giants in Super League, Matt Peet’s side threw away a resounding late in the final ten minutes of their Good Friday clash against St. Helens, ultimately losing 34-24.

This Wigan team are clearly missing Bevan French, with the influential stand-off out for the next few months due to a hamstring injury and whilst Jai Field is back in the fold, he was ineffective vs the Saints. When taking into account how well Wakefield are playing lately across the field, not to mention home advantage being in their favour, it’s well worth backing them to pull off an upset.
