Hull Kingston Rovers will look to avoid three straight defeats on the bounce against Wakefield when they host Trinity at Craven Park on Saturday evening in Super League.
The Robins have been formidable at home of late and they will be brimming with confidence ahead of a clash against a Wakefield side who have caused them problems in the recent past.
Wakey have won their last two games against KR, but with both of those victories coming in West Yorkshire, Trinity face a sterner test when they head to Craven Park this weekend.

Hull Kingston Rovers v Wakefield Trinity Prediction
Best Bet: Hull Kingston Rovers -12.5 handicap @ 1/1
Wakefield have started to become a bogey team for Hull KR after back-to-back defeats at Belle Vue but the story has been very different when it comes to encounters at Craven Park.
The Robins have soared to victory in all of their last four home meetings with Trinity and the hosts are backed to win and cover the -12.5 handicap.
Wakefield have been one of the surprise packages in Super League this season with six wins in their last seven outings.
However, KR are on an eight-game winning streak at home in all competitions and Rovers are tipped to claim the spoils.
Alternative Bet: Under 50.5 total points @ 4/5
Looking back at Hull KR’s recent home record, while they have been picking up wins consistently, these matches have not tended to be particularly high-scoring.
Mainly due to their impressive defence, with the Robins conceding an average of eight points across their last three home matches.
Saturday’s encounter at Craven Park is backed to go under 50.5 total points.
Hull Kingston Rovers v Wakefield Trinity Bet Builder Tip
Hull Kingston Rovers to win
Mikey Lewis anytime tryscorer
Tom Johnstone anytime tryscorer
Pays 5/1
This Bet Builder continues on the theme that the Robins will maintain their strong home record and pick up another victory, while Mikey Lewis and Tom Johnstone are tipped up in the anytime tryscorer market.
Lewis scored a try the last time these sides met at Belle Vue and is backed to go over again for Rovers this weekend.
Johnstone is in outstanding form, scoring 10 tries in his last six appearances for Trinity, so it would be little surprise to see the 30-year-old add at least one more try to his tally.
