York Knights vs Keighley Cougars prediction

York Knights came out the wrong end of a high scoring encounter against Warrington Wolves in their most recent game, losing 30-38. Despite that defeat, their improvement from an attacking perspective suggests positive signs from a York perspective and they should take that into their Challenge Cup campaign.

Keighley Cougars have nothing to lose here after scraping through round 3 with a 18-14 victory over Midlands Hurricanes. The likelihood is that York will really focus on restricting Keighley defensively, needing to improve on that front compared to what we saw from them vs the Wire, albeit against far weaker opposition. Either way, expect a comfortable win for the Knights.
