THE TEAM NEWS
LEIGH LEOPARDS
- Leigh Leopards claimed a narrow win over Wakefield Trinity with the Challenge Cup winners edging the game in golden point and they will need to be much better here as they take on local rivals Wigan Warriors.
- The Leopards know they can perform better than they have of late but injuries are starting to bite and they are getting hit with them at the worst possible time as they need a win to guarantee a home play-off tie.
21-man squad: Briscoe, Chamberlain, Charnley, Mellor, Lam, Amone, Ipape, Mulhern, Wardle, Hughes, Asiata, Nakubuwai, Reynolds, Holmes, O’Brien, Davis, O’Donnell, Seumanufagai, Halton, Gildart
WIGAN WARRIORS
- Wigan Warriors have won their last eight Super League matches and can secure the League Leaders’ Shield with a win in their final game of the regular season.
- The Warriors were big winners once again as they thrashed Castleford Tigers last week and their squad is looking in good health ahead of the play-offs.
21-man squad: Field, French, King, Wardle, Marshall, Cust, Smith, Powell, Farrell, Smithies, Ellis, Pearce-Paul, Shorrocks, Mago, Thornley, O’Neill, Miski, Hill, Nsemba, Hampshire, Dupree
THE PREDICTION
Leigh Leopards have already enjoyed a season beyond their wildest dreams but there is still work to do if they want to make 2023 a truly memorable one. They have fallen by the wayside since their Challenge Cup final win against Hull KR but they have at least picked up two wins in their last three. However, they will need to significantly improve their levels of performance to topple an in-form Wigan Warriors outfit and it is hard to see them doing so with the away side able to claim the win they need to finish top of the table.
