Castleford Tigers VS Leeds Rhinos Super League Preview

8th September – 20:00 – Mend-A-Hose Jungle, Castleford

Our partners: 777Spinslot casino was created with the intention of offering superior gameplay, customer experience, and it provides a large variety of no deposit slots from the best providers of the industry.

Ahead of our Super League odds, both teams know this match could be a dress rehearsal for the Grand Final and will want to come out on top and boost their confidence against their closest rivals. With identical results in the Super 8s in three wins and a solitary loss, the form suggests there is nothing between the teams and home advantage for the Tigers could be the swing that ensures the bragging rights going into the final few weeks of the season.

Key Players to Watch

Castleford Tigers winger Greg Eden has been a try scoring machine this season with 36 tries with his nearest rival in the stats over 15 behind. As the season gets to the business end, his influence will be key as the Tigers go in search of their first Super League title. Leeds Rhino stand-off Joel Moon has been one of the Rhino consistent players for nearly five years and has added 15 tries for the club and his experience will be key for the visitors.

Both Teams Recent Form

Before we get to our Super League betting tips, despite an early Super 8s loss to St Helens, the Tigers have bounced back with three wins and are showing why they have the quality in the side to go all the way. Last time out a 24-16 win at Huddersfield was a tricky test that they overcame with flying colours. Leeds had a good win last time out over Hull FC and have only lost once in the Super 8s when they were outclassed in a heavy loss to Wakefield Trinity.

Castleford Tigers VS Leeds Rhinos Head-to-Head

There have been three meetings between the teams this season with Castleford coming out on top in all of the games including their most recent 23-12 win at the Rhinos in June. Over the last 10 meetings between these two sides, it has been Castleford that have been ahead in the head-to-head with seven wins and only two losses and a draw between the sides.

Castleford Tigers VS Leeds Rhinos Prediction

This is a match that is a close call and for our match prediction, we put the advantage just with the Castleford Tigers with their previous matches this season and home advantage taken into account. Leeds Rhinos have the experience when it comes to the latter stages of the season and will be a tough test for the title chasing Tigers but one that we think Castleford will overcome.
