HUDDERSFIELD GIANTS FORM: GIANTS CLAIM FIRST WIN IN FIVE

In what was a much-needed victory, the Giants prevailed in a low-scoring clash with Salford Red Devils last week. Huddersfield defended well but will need to show more enterprise with the ball if they are to back that up.

LAST FIVE: LLLLW

LEEDS RHINOS FORM: RHINOS LOSE AGAIN

In a tight affair, Leeds fell short against Hull KR as they were made to pay for failing to take numerous opportunities with the ball. It was a frustrating result for Leeds and they will need to massively improve if they are to avoid a third straight loss.

LAST FIVE: LWWLL

HUDDERSFIELD GIANTS TEAM NEWS: WILSON OUT FOR SEASON

Prop Oliver Wilson has suffered a season-ending injury which is a big blow for the Giants. Thomas Deakin is back in the squad after recovering from a head knock.

LEEDS RHINOS TEAM NEWS: FUSITU’A BACK ON SIDELINES

Winger David Fusitu’a has suffered yet another injury setback so has dropped out of the squad this week but in better news, Sam Eseh Jr. has seen his loan spell extended so will feature once again.

21-MAN SQUAD: Miller, Newman, Momirovski, Handley, Croft, Frawley, Oledzki, Ackers, Bentley, Martin, Smith, O’Connor, Lisone, McDonnell, Sinfield, Roberts, Donaldson, Edgell, Nicholson-Watton, Littlewood, Eseh Jr.

HUDDERSFIELD GIANTS VS LEEDS RHINOS PREDICTION

These two teams both look set to miss out on a spot in the top six but there is still hope for them, especially Leeds Rhinos. The away side sit just four points behind sixth-placed Salford Red Devils but they have lost their last two and have done so in pretty underwhelming fashion. On the other hand, Huddersfield Giants got back to winning ways last week and they are fancied to back that up here, making it three consecutive victories against the Rhinos.
