Halifax Panthers vs St Helens Prediction: Helens are so clear

The match between the Halifax Panthers and the St. Helens Saints that is part of round 1/8 of the Europe Challenge Cup will take place at the Shay.

Halifax Panthers - Panthers are in great form

The Halifax Panthers are significant underdogs in this match, and the side playing at home will try to exert some influence on the outcome. When looking at their most recent matches, we can see that the Halifax Panthers have been on a roll, as evidenced by their four consecutive victories. These victories came against York RLFC, Bradford, Newcastle, and Whitehaven. However, despite the fact that the Halifax Panthers will provide a challenging obstacle for them to overcome, we are convinced that the home team will be able to perform better in this match because they will have the advantage of playing at their own venue.

St Helens - favorite here

Due to the fact that St. Helens' overall performances have been subpar, the team is currently at one of their lowest points in recent memory. However, credit is due to the away team for their victory over Salford last Saturday in a match that was decided by a score of 26-12. Despite this, they have been victorious in only one of their last three matches, which they played against Wigan, Hull KR, and Catalans Dragons. Even though they are greatly favored in this match, we anticipate that St. Helens will perform much better than they did in the last match. We are convinced that they have what it takes to get to the next round of this competition.

Expert Betting Tips

Despite the fact that St. Helens have struggled with consistency throughout the season, the calibre of their roster is likely to be the deciding factor in this matchup given how formidable their players have been individually. On the other hand, we anticipate the Halifax Panthers to put forth a solid effort here as well. Therefore, a bet on over points should be considered, with St Helens enjoying wins in both halves of the match.
