In-form pair set for cup thriller

Salford host Hull KR in the Challenge Cup on Friday in a repeat of last season’s Million Pound Game that saw Rovers relegated.

Both teams have been in sparkling form this season, with the Red Devils currently third in the Super League while Hull KR are top of the Championship.

Rovers have won five and drawn one of their last ten meetings with Salford and head into this game with little pressure on their shoulders.

Salford should progress, but Hull KR (+12) are 10/11 at Betfred and that appears to be the way to play this one.
