Wakefield v Hull KR
5pm Sunday

After a fantastic start to the season, injuries have taken their toll on Wakefield.

Trinity began the season with a number of impressive performances, including a comprehensive opening win over Sunday's opponents Hull KR, as they began the campaign with four straight wins.

However, one win from their subsequent eight games has seen them slip down the Betfred Super League ladder.

Coach Chris Chester is able to welcome back four first-team regulars for the visit of Rovers including playmaker Liam Finn which should add more cohesion in attack.

With Finn creating in the middle, more chances should fall the way of Trinity's England hopeful Tom Johnstone on the wing. The 22-year-old bagged a hat-trick when the sides met in February and will be a huge threat to Rovers' edge defence again.

At 7-1 he looks good each-way value to bag the first try at Belle Vue.

Recommendation
T Johnstone first tryscorer
1pt e-w 7-1 Paddy Power
