LEIGH LEOPARDS VS WARRINGTON WOLVES PREDICTION
Leigh Leopards have done such a good job to turn their season around but the job is not done yet as they still have work to do to make it into the top six. Warrington Wolves will be tough opponents here with the away side aiming to finish top of the pile but they too have work to do to achieve that feat. This could go either way with both teams capable of prevailing and this is likely to be a tight affair with a close scoreline on the cards.
