Wakefield Trinity will look to end their wait for a victory in Perpignan when they take on Catalans Dragons in Super League on Saturday night.
Trinity have not beaten Catalans at Stade Gilbert Brutus since February 2018, but Daryl Powell's troops will travel to the south of France in a confident mood.
Wakefield have won six in a row in Super League and they are still in contention to win the League Leaders' Shield.
Powell's team still have to host league-leaders Leeds Rhinos this season and everything looks positive for Trinity.
The same cannot be said for Catalans, who are eighth in the table, and the French outfit are six points behind the playoffs and are already planning for next season.
Catalans Dragons v Wakefield Trinity Tips Summary
Best Bet - Wakefield Trinity -10.5 @ 1/1

Bet Builder - Tom Johnstone to score two or more tries, Max Jowitt to score a try @ 9/1
Catalans Dragons v Wakefield Trinity Prediction
Best Bet: Wakefield Trinity -10.5 @ 1/1
Wakefield have been ruthless in recent weeks and they have won nine in 10 under Powell.
Trinity have won 15 of their 20 Super League matches and they come into the game on the back of a 52-14 victory over Castleford Tigers.
Powell's troops have scored 20 points or more in five consecutive games away from home and they should be able to repeat that at the very least.
Catalans have conceded 24 points or more in six consecutive ties at Stade Gilbert Brutus and all signs point to an away win.
Wakefield hammered Catalans 58-10 in May and another one-sided showdown is expected.
Alternative Bet: Wakefield Trinity to win both halves - Yes @ 5/4
Wakefield have been consistent defensively in recent weeks, although the fixture list has been kind. Trinity have not played any of the top five in their last six matches, but they have still stayed at the top of their game.
Powell's men have only conceded more than 14 points in one of their last six and that bodes well for them to win both halves.
Catalans have not scored more than 18 points in five successive matches and the Dragons should struggle to build a platform from the outset.
Catalans Dragons v Wakefield Trinity Bet Builder Tip
Tom Johnstone to score two or more tries
Max Jowitt to score a try
Pays @ 9/1
Wakefield winger Tom Johnstone is one of the best finishers in the game and he will look to punish his former club.
Johnstone has scored eight tries in his last six matches and Wakefield should be able to find space in Catalans' half. The Dragons are one of the worst teams in Super League for missed tackles, so Johnstone should be on hand to finish any clean break.
Full-back Max Jowitt should be able to benefit from Wakefield's dominance through the middle. Trinity are so strong through the middle of the park and once Catalans tire, Jowitt should be lurking in space as he looks to score a try for the second game in a row.
