Leeds to cover handicap against Rovers

Correspondent

Leeds are massive favourites to see off Featherstone on Friday and make it through to the last four of the Challenge Cup.

The Rhinos are without Jamie Jones-Buchanan through suspension and head coach Brian McDermott may make some changes, but they should still have enough about them to see off Rovers.

Leeds beat Featherstone 62-6 on their own patch in last season’s Qualifiers and they’re a stronger outfit this term.

McDermott’s team are 10/11 with Betfred to overcome a 30 point handicap and we fancy they’ll cover that.
