Warrington Wolves vs Castleford Tigers prediction
Warrington Wolves have already shown that they are a force to be reckoned with this season and their early results are testament to that. They are still perfect so far in Super League with three wins from three and come into this one as overwhelming favourites against a Castleford Tigers side whose only Super League victory so far this season has come against bottom-placed Huddersfield Giants.
When taking into account the return of Matty Ashton for Wire, they are only likely to improve from an offensive point of view and that doesn’t bode well for the Tigers. With home advantage also being in their favour, they are expected to comfortable get the better of Castleford and defeat would be a big shock.
