Leigh vs Hull FC Prediction: Leigh are expected to be dominant in this match

Betfred Super League action at Leigh Sports Village will see Leigh play Hull FC in a round 21 encounter. Both teams ended on the losing end the previous weekend and will have high hopes here. How will they respond in this fixture?

Leigh's last encounter was against Wigan Warriors, a game that ended in a 28-6 defeat. However, prior encounters to that defeat saw Leigh win four games in a row, defeating Huddersfield, London Broncos, St Helens, and Castleford. This season, Leigh have, however, struggled, picking just 19 points from 20 matches, which leaves them seated 8th in the standings. Leigh head into this game with four straight home wins, and they will feel confident keeping things going. 

Hull FC has been unreliable this season, and they have to show that they are ready to compete. Last weekend, this team played St Helens, and they lost 6-46 in what was a home game. However, that defeat was Hull FC's fifth in their last six matches, their lone victory coming against Wigan Warriors. However, in other encounters, Hull FC lost to Warrington Wolves, Salford Red Devils, Hull KR, and Catalans Dragons. This season, Hull FC have zero points away from home. 

Hull FC have not shown that they are ready to prove themselves, looking at the margin of their defeat to St Helens the previous weekend. While Leigh has stepped up their game so much, last weekend's defeat to Wigan Warriors was expected, looking at the difference in the quality of the squad. Therefore, with Hull FC not showing they can compete, I am backing Leigh to win this game with a huge margin, a game that should be one-sided.
