SALFORD RED DEVILS VS LEEDS RHINOS PREDICTION
Salford Red Devils know a win here would be extremely important in their quest to secure a top six spot but defeat to Leeds Rhinos would make it a nervy run-in. The visitors are on the cusp of forcing their way into a play-off spot and despite winning last week, they still have big improvements to make. Salford have also been inconsistent of late but their squad is looking a lot healthier and they should have the quality to prevail.
