The team news is in for tonight’s top-of-the-table Super League clash between Warrington Wolves and Leeds Rhinos in what is being sold as the game of the season so far.
Despite playing one game less than the visitors, Warrington are level on points with the Rhinos with 22 points with tonight’s winner set to end round 15 of Super League on top of the table.
The round five defeat at Headingley is one of just Super League games that Warrington have lost in 2026 and the Wolves will be keen to put that right tonight against a Leeds side who have made just one change to last week’s squad.
Kick off is at 8:00 pm at the Halliwell Jones Stadium with coverage on Sky Sports from 7:30 pm for tonight’s big match-up with the confirmed matchday squads below.
