Bradford-2.5

Bulls are not at their best but i think its fair to say Potter is improving with every week. Their defence has been a lot better than it was under Mcnamara- it couldnt have got worse right enough- but the line is more solid now and tough to break.

Hes made some good signings and while they cant find consistancy, a top 8 place in possible. I like their forwards plenty of power in there but also a lot of speed on the edges. Herbert and Kearney is a nice partnership and there is a fair bit�of pace out wide.

Salford have so�many problems at the moment. No manager, no coach, and rumours of a split in the dressing room. They were awful last week at Cas defending like a school -boy side. The fans are not happy with what is going on at the club and also they have to play this game at the side time as the Manchester derby- so many Salford fans will decide to miss this and watch their footy team.

Bulls look lot more powerful in the forwards so i take them to win by more than 2. Id expect a big game from Ainscough. Hes not the best defender but his effort and desire to support on either side of the park is second to none. I think he could maybe take the man of the match but Bulls should win it by more than a couple anyway.
