St Helens set to take impressive number of fans to Whitehaven for Challenge Cup tie

St Helens are set to take an impressive number of fans to Whitehaven for their Challenge Cup tie tomorrow.

Over 1,000 tickets have been sold for the Sixth Round clash at the Recreation Ground with Cumbrian side Haven aiming for 4-5,000 fans.

What an incredible day it will be in Cumbria with Whitehaven welcoming the Super League champions.

Haven have two wins from six in their Championship season so far, whilst Saints sit top with just one loss in six games.

Can an upset occur? Who knows, but the magic of the Challenge Cup will be on show at the Recreation Ground this weekend.

Saints will be welcoming back Regan Grace and Joe Batchelor from injury, but there is no Matty Lees which is a big blow for Kristian Woolf’s men after he picked up an injury against Toulouse. James Bell, despite impressing for Leigh in their win over Halifax, returned from that clash with a shoulder injury.
