WARRINGTON WOLVES VS WIGAN WARRIORS PREDICTION
These two teams will compete for the Challenge Cup at Wembley next week but first, there are two competition points on the line in Super League. The pair each boast 18 points apiece and are vying for top spot in the league so this is an important contest but with Warrington opting to heavily rotate their side with one eye on next week’s clash, it should pay to side with the Warriors.
