It will be an interesting clash between Huddersfield Giants and Wigan Warriors considering that these teams will be facing each other in less than a fortnight at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Huddersfield, of course, were comprehensive winners over Hull KR in their Challenge Cup semi-final last weekend.
Likewise, Wigan too triumphed against arch-rivals St Helens in their respective semi-final to set up the London clash at the end of May.
