Hull FC v Wigan Warriors Prediction, Tips and Bet Builder

Wigan Warriors will look to extend their winning run to five matches when they travel to Hull FC in Super League on Saturday afternoon.

The Warriors started their winning sequence when lifting the Challenge Cup at the end of May, as they hammered Hull Kingston Rovers 40-10.

They have since outclassed Catalans Dragons, Wakefield Trinity and York Knights and they will head to the MKM Stadium with a spring in their step.

The same cannot be said of the Black and Whites, who have struggled all season long. The departure of coach John Cartwright, who is now in charge of Catalans, was a blow and interim boss Andy Last has yet to make an impression.

Hull FC have lost seven of their last 10 games and they could be in for a tough afternoon at the office in Super League.

Hull FC v Wigan Warriors

Hull FC v Wigan Warriors Prediction

Best Bet: Wigan Warriors -24.5 @ 1/1

It seems like every single season Wigan go on a run where they make light work of any team in front of them for a good six weeks.

After a month of one-sided victories, they do not look like slowing down as they prepare to head across the M62.

Hull FC have been unable to show any consistency in attack, apart from their 36-12 win over Huddersfield Giants.

In their last six games, the Black and Whites have lost five times and they have failed to score more than 14 points in each of those defeats.

Wigan will dominate through the middle and they should be relentless in this tie and they are simply better in all departments than their hosts.

Alternative Bet: Over 56.5 points @ 4/5

Wigan are scoring points for fun of late and they have notched 40 points or more in four consecutive weeks.

That means we should get an entertaining game, with Wakefield Trinity scoring 36 against Hull FC last week, while Leigh Leopards put 42 on the board against them in May.

Even if Hull only manage to score a try or two, Wigan are capable of racking up the points on their own.

Hull FC v Wigan Warriors Bet Builder Tip

  • First 10 minutes Wigan to score - Yes

  • Wigan to win both halves

  • Jai Field to score a try

  • Bevan French to score a try

    Pays 9/2

Wigan's elite players are suited to the current weather and their ability to break open defences from anywhere on the pitch should mean they race into the lead inside the first 10 minutes.

The Warriors have suffocated most of their opponents in recent weeks thanks to their superior kicking game and that should continue, in a match where they can win both halves with ease.

Once Hull FC tire, Wigan full-back Jai Field should be able to open up some gaps and cross over for yet another try, as he is one of the best players in the league on a dry pitch as he utilises his speed and agility.

The same can be said of Bevan French, who will lurk on the shoulder of Wigan's props, looking for any offloads to pounce upon and this game looks set up for him to score.
