Super League Picks Round 13 – It’s magic!

Magic weekend is upon us and I'm sure all those off to Murrayfield will be in for a jolly good time. I shall be in Southampton, about as far away as you can get and still be in the UK.

Last week's predictions got a 5 out of 7, which isn't too bad. I doubt many people saw the shock win from Harlequins at Wigan coming and maybe backing the Crusaders against Huddersfield was a bit of a wildcard but I do believe they are becoming a team capable of taking points from most teams at home. 

Still onto this weeks guesses predictions:

Bradford Bulls v Crusaders RL: Bradford Bulls by 10

Hull FC v Harlequins RL: Hull FC by 20

Salford City Reds v Warrington Wolves: Salford City Reds by 4

Leeds Rhinos v Wakefield Wildcats: Leeds Rhinos by 12

Castleford Tigers v Catalans Dragons: Castleford Tigers by 8

Wigan Warriors v Huddersfield Giants: Wigan Warriors by 22

St Helens v Hull KR: St Helens by 8

I will stick my neck out here and say that Salford is my only crazy pick of the round.
