Castleford vs Catalans Dragons Prediction: Dragons will dominate once again

The Mend-A-Hose Jungle will hold the Betfred Super League game between Castleford and Catalans Dragons. The two teams head into this fixture following a win and will hope to keep things running. I will analyze the two teams' performances and provide betting opportunities.

Castleford are off a good back-to-back performance, and they will look to keep things rolling. However, this game will be tough as they come in as underdogs here. However, in their prior games, this team defeated St Helens and London Broncos in games that ended 6-8 and 20-34. However, previous games to those wins saw this side lose three consecutive matches against Leeds Rhinos, Wigan Warriors, and Hull KR. Heading into this game, Castleford are seated in 10th spot in the league standings with 11 points from 17 matches. 

Catalans Dragons made it three wins in a row and will enter into this game with confidence. Last weekend, this team took on Salford Red Devils and won, scoring 20 points without conceding 1. In the meantime, prior games to that win saw Catalans Dragons secure wins over Hull KR and Huddersfield in games that ended 14-15 and 22-18. Heading into this game, Catalans Dragons are seated 5th in the league standings with 22 points.

Castleford did show they can compete in the last two weeks, but I do not see this team as strong enough. However, Catalans Dragons are on the run here, and I do not see them on the losing end, given the number of times they have proved themselves this season. I expect this game to be close, but the Dragons have a better chance here.
