St Helens vs Hull KR Prediction: A must-watch encounter this weekend

Betfred Super League encounter moves to Totally Wicked Stadium, where St Helens will play Hull KR. Hull KR have been the better team lately, while St Helens are coming off a poor result. Let's preview this game and make predictions. 

St Helens' performance was below par the previous week against Wigan Warriors as they failed to score a single goal while losing by 20 points at the end. In the meantime, this team secured consecutive wins in prior games to that loss, defeating Hull FC and Salford Red Devils. However, the St Helens have now lost six of their last eight matches, moving them to fourth in the standings with 26 points. 

Hull KR are playing at the top level and will come here with confidence. Last weekend, they took on Catalans Dragons on the road and secured a 32-point win. This team has now won by at least 20 points in their last four matches, three others being against the London Broncos, Warrington Wolves, and Castleford. Heading into this game, Hull KR have won nine of their last ten matches, with their only defeat being against Catalans Dragons in the first leg of their meeting.

This is a tricky game, looking at what the two teams could give. St Helens have just not gotten that right progression as they remain inconsistent. Looking at Hull KR, they are the hottest in the league and will look to keep the momentum going. This game should end with close scores, but St Helens should be able to get within points at home following a poor game last weekend.
