THE TEAM NEWS
WIGAN WARRIORS
- Wigan Warriors made it three wins from four as they made an immediate return to winning ways, bouncing back from their disappointing loss to Catalans Dragons.
- The Warriors were able to grind out a narrow success on the road against Huddersfield Giants last week and head coach Matt Peet has named an unchanged 21-man squad once again.
21-man squad: Field, French, King, Wardle, Marshall, Cust, Smith, Singleton, Powell, Byrne, Isa, Farrell, Smithies, Cooper, Ellis, Havard, Pearce-Paul, Mago, O’Neill, Miski, Nsemba
Unavailable: Ryan Hampshire (Injured), Iain Thornley (Injured)
Questionable:
SALFORD RED DEVILS
- Salford Red Devils were below par in their clash with Wakefield Trinity and needed the boot of Marc Sneyd to secure the golden point victory.
- Sneyd landed a drop goal in the additional period to hand the Red Devils a second win in succession and they could be boosted by the return of Joe Burgess and Tim Lafai for this contest, although the loss of hooker Andy Ackers is a huge blow.
21-man squad: Brierley, Sio, Watkins, Lafai, Burgess, Croft, Sneyd, Ormondroyd, Vuniyayawa, Stone, Atkin, Addy, Dupree, Wright, Sidlow, Longstaff, Bourouh, Williams, Costello, Hellewell, Cross
Unavailable: Alex Gerrard (Injured), Oliver Partington (Injured), Andy Ackers (Injured)
Questionable: Tim Lafai, Joe Burgess, Ellis Longstaff
THE PREDICTION
Wigan Warriors are yet to really hit their straps so far this season but have still managed to win three of their last four matches. They face a potentially difficult task here as they host a solid Salford Red Devils outfit that are capable of causing problems but the loss of key man Andy Ackers could be pivotal in their quest to make it three straight wins. The Warriors have also won the past six matchups between the two teams in all competitions so they are favoured to come out on top once again.
