Wakefield Trinity host Leigh Leopards in Round 14 of Super League and the team news has been confirmed.
These sides have met twice already in 2025 with the wins at one a piece currently, Leigh having won in the Challenge Cup quarter-finals and Wakefield having won the week prior in Super League.
Trinity defeated the Leopards at the Leigh Sports Village in shock fashion before then being knocked out of the Challenge Cup a week later at the DIY Kitchens Stadium.
That ground will play host today with Wakefield knowing a win can push them closer to the Super League play-offs, whilst Leigh will be hoping to reapply pressure on third-placed Leeds Rhinos.
The game will also serve as a fundraiser for charity Candlelighters who support families through the cancer journeys of their loved ones with Daryl Powell’s grandson Clarke having a form of leukemia.
Both sides have now confirmed their matchday squads.

Leigh Leopards team news
Adrian Lam has made a big call on the wing with Josh Charnley left out and only named as 18th man, as Keanan Brand starts on the wing. Charnley has recently played off the bench but he doesn’t get that opportunity this week.
David Armstrong starts meaning that Bailey Hodgson is on the bench alongside forwards Jack Hughes and Alec Tuitavake, as well as hooker Matt Davis.
Gareth O’Brien and Ethan O’Neill both miss out through injury so Ben McNamara pairs Lachlan Lam in the halves once again.
