Bradford Bulls vs Hull KR | Betfred Super League | 25 April 2026

Match Overview

Bradford Bulls return to Super League and face arguably the sternest possible test. Hull KR arrive at Odsal as defending champions, fresh from a dominant campaign, and this match tells you everything about the gap between a rebuilding side finding its feet and an established title contender at the peak of its powers.

Bradford Bulls

Kurt Haggerty's side are in full rebuild mode and the results are reflecting that. A 52-12 defeat to Wakefield last week was brutal reading, and it signals that the Bulls are still finding their level in a competition several rungs above what they've faced recently. Odsal's famous winds can disrupt any game plan, and on their day Bradford can be awkward opponents. But consistency is a real problem, and against top-end quality they've been ruthlessly exposed. At 19/1, there's theoretical underdog value here, but this is a big ask even by promoted-side standards.

Hull KR

Willie Peters has Hull KR purring. A 46-0 demolition of Toulouse last week was a statement of intent, and the defending champions look every bit as dangerous as they were during their title-winning campaign. Their offloading game and attacking fluidity create problems for any defence, let alone one as stretched as Bradford's currently appears. Travelling to West Yorkshire is no concern for a squad of this quality and experience. The only question is the margin, not the result.

Betting Angle

Hull KR at 1.01 is functionally unbackable on its own, offering almost no return whatsoever. The smarter angle is to look at their scoring volume. A side that just put 46 unanswered points on Toulouse, against a Bradford defence that conceded 52 last week, points firmly toward a high points total. Pair the KR win with an over points line for any meaningful return on this one.
