CASTLEFORD TIGERS VS LEIGH LEOPARDS PREDICTION

Castleford Tigers will hope to end their home campaign on a high as they take on Leigh Leopards but having won just one of their last six, they have it all to do here. The Tigers did claim that success last week but this is a different task altogether against a Leigh side that have won their last four and needing to win again to keep their charge to the play-offs going, it is tough to see beyond the visitors.
