Tonight we will see Wigan Warriors and Leigh Leopards go toe to toe in a huge game at the top, Hull KR meet Wakefield Trinity in a crucial game for fourth, Warrington Wolves meet Huddersfield Giants hoping to secure a play off spot and Salford Red Devils are hoping to exploit any hiccup against Catalans Dragons who, alongside St Helens who are playing against Hull FC, are after the League Leaders’ Shield.
Leigh vs Wigan is the main event and so Leigh will be hoping to avoid any floodlight problems.
This has has been highlighted by the club themselves branding the floodlight their man of the match against Huddersfield Giants which is an argument Huddersfield Giants boss Ian Watson suggested at the time.
The Leopards said: “He was our player of the match last week, so here’s hoping for another big performance from Flood Light tonight against the Warriors.”
The Giants responded with an unimpressed emoji.
In addition to full match coverage of this game, Sky will also have cameras and reporters at all fixtures that stand a chance of affecting the shape of the Play-Offs, meaning viewers won’t miss a thing next Friday night.
