THE TEAM NEWS
WARRINGTON WOLVES
- Warrington Wolves continued their impressive run of form in Super League with a sixth successive victory and they earned their most recent win in style as they were able to blow Wigan Warriors away last week.
- The Wolves were solid defensively but it was their ability with the ball that stood out once again as they ran in 40 points and they have now hit 38 points or more in five of their last six league games.
21-man squad: Akauola, Austin, Butler, Charnley, D. Clark, J. Clark, Cooper, Currie, Davis, Hill, Hughes, King, Lineham, Longstaff, Mamo, Mulhern, Philbin, Ratchford, Thewlis, Walker, Wrench
Unavailable: Matty Ashton, Gareth Widdop

LEEDS RHINOS
- Leeds Rhinos secured a third straight win as their quest to challenge for a spot in the top six continued to gather pace but this is a much tougher assignment for the Rhinos after comfortably seeing off winless Leigh Centurions last week.
- The Rhinos have looked impressive with ball in hand once again in that game, making it 146 points scored in their last three outings but the absence of Luke Gale and Richie Myler could be problematic in cracking a tough Warrington outfit.
21-man squad: L. Briscoe, T. Briscoe, Broadbent, Donaldson, Dwyer, Gannon, Handley, Holroyd, Hurrell, Leeming, Lui, Martin, McLelland, Mellor, O’Connor, Oledzki, Prior, L. Sutcliffe, Thompson, Tindall, Walters
Unavailable: Jack Walker, Harry Newman, Cameron Smith, Alex Sutcliffe, Zane Tetevano, Luke Gale, Richie Myler, King Vuniyayawa
Questionable: Rob Lui
THE PREDICTION
Both Warrington Wolves and Leeds Rhinos come into this clash with
some decent form behind them but that is particularly the case of the
former who have won their last six Super League matches. It is three for
Leeds on the other hand but this is a step up in class for them after
overcoming opponents in their last two that they would have fully
expected to beat. The Rhinos are also still missing some key personnel
and with that in mind, the hosts should prove to be too good here and
their ability to rack up points should see them cover the -13.5 handicap
in this one.
