Saints are on the road again on Sunday as we face Hull FC in Betfred Super League Round 23 with kick off at 3pm and we have all the pre-match information for you right here in our preview.

BACKGROUND…

The Saints have won our last 13 meetings with Hull FC. In fact, Hull’s last victory against the Saints was an 8-6 Super 8s away win on 11 August, 2017.

St Helens have also won on their last six visits to the MKM Stadium. Hull FC’s last home victory against the Saints was 24-14 on 10 March, 2017.
