THE TEAM NEWS

LEIGH LEOPARDS

• Leigh Leopards secured another crucial win on their return to Super League as their eye-catching start to the season continued with a win on the road against Hull FC last week.
• The Leopards started strongly and got the job done on the back of Josh Charnley’s hat-trick but they have lost Joe Shorrocks ahead of this contest with the forward recalled by parent club Wigan Warriors.

21-man squad: Hardaker, Briscoe, Chamberlain, Leutele, Charnley, Mellor, Lam, Amone, Ipapae, Mulhern, Hughes, Asiata, Nakubuwai, Reynolds, Holmes, O’Brien, Davis, Nisbit, O’Donnell, Wilde, Seumanufagai

Unavailable: Joe Wardle (Injured)

Questionable: Jack Hughes

WIGAN WARRIORS

• Wigan Warriors made it back-to-back victories as they came from behind to defeat Salford Red Devils last week but there is still lots of room for improvement moving forward.
• Switching Bevan French to fullback and moving Jai Field into the halves at the expense of Cade Cust had the desired effect and that could well become a permanent switch to extract more from their attack.

21-man squad: Field, French, King, Wardle, Marshall, Cust, Smith, Singleton, Powell, Byrne, Isa, Farrell, Smithies, Cooper, Ellis, Havard, Pearce-Paul, Shorrocks, Mago, O’Neill, Miski

Unavailable: Ryan Hampshire (Injured), Iain Thornley (Injured)

THE PREDICTION

Leigh Leopards made it three wins from their last four matches as they continued their solid return to Super League. The Leopards now face this clash with local rivals Wigan Warriors sensing an upset but they will have to be at their best with their opponents showing how dangerous they can be as they turned things around to beat Salford Red Devils. If Wigan line-up with the same spine that ended that contest, they should have enough to overcome the Leopards.
