Salford Red Devils vs Wigan Warriors Prediction

Salford will most likely be bringing new signing half-back Jack Littlejohn straight into the fold after his winter move from West Tigers. They will need all the talent they can get as the Warriors are still riding high after claiming the 2017 World Club Championships. An enthralling game is set to ensue, but the Warriors have the bit between their teeth, the history and the squad to get off to a winning start making them one of our top Salford Red Devils vs Wigan Warriors betting tips for the win.

Salford Red Devils vs Wigan Warriors Betting Tips

Wigan will be looking for a repeat of the 26-16 win they claimed the last time they took on Salford at the AJ Bell. Head coach Shaun Wane has been in buoyant mood ahead of the clash and has his side ready and raring to go. His side is largely unchanged from the side that claimed the World Cup and that is of a huge benefit to their chances. Stability is key, and Wigan have that in abundance whereas Salford have made a few changes who will need time to settle in especially after a mixed pre-season. Betway offer some of the very best rugby league betting odds and their price for Wigan to start the campaign in the best possible way is one of this week’s top Salford Red Devils vs Wigan Warriors prediction.

For even more value from a Warriors win, then get on the handicap with Betfair. Wigan won this game by exactly ten points last season and only back to back losses in their last two games in the previous campaign made their domestic season look worse than it was. Head coach Shaun Wane has kept the same side that claimed the Club World Championship last season and now they are ready to assault Super league to claim back the title they won in 2016. A year older and Wigan look much stronger than this point last year whereas Salford appear to have taken a sideways step. Betfair have some of the best handicap markets available on Rugby League and their price for a Warriors win with a handicap is almost too hot to handle. Sit down and strap yourself in as Salford and Wigan set to light up the league on Friday night.
