Hull FC vs Warrington Wolves: Kick-off time, TV channel and predicted line-ups

Just days after a Hull derby, the Black and Whites have to host play-off rivals Warrington Wolves.

Hull FC come into the game on the back of defeat in the aforementioned derby. That leaves them three points off the top four and level with Hull KR and Warrington. Early in the season, this could be a big game in the battle for play-off rugby.

Warrington will be thinking the same as they look to generate some momentum after a win last week saw them end a poor run of form.

Kick-off time and TV channel

The game kicks off at 17:30.

TV coverage starts at 17:00 on Sky Sports Arena.

Predicted Line-ups

Hull FC
Hull FC have lost Josh Griffin and Andre Savelio following the derby but could have the likes of Jamie Shaul back in the fold. Mitieli Vulikijapani will be the man tasked with coming into the centres whilst Jordan Lane will come into the backrow. Joe Lovodua may figure at 13 once more and Jamie Shaul could be named on the bench to offer some spark.

Warrington Wolves
The Wolves are boosted by the return of George Williams who could allow Daryl Powell to name his strongest backline assuming he wants to just days after a hard fought win over Salford. Down the middle, he’s still without Oliver Holmes so Jack Hughes and Ben Currie will figure in the backrow.
