St Helens vs Toulouse Olympique: Kick-off time, TV channel and predicted line-ups

In the final game of the season, top meets bottom in a match between two sides who will look back on the regular season very differently.

The Saints will lift the League Leaders’ Shield at the end of this game as they look to make history with a fourth consecutive Grand Final win galvanised by the departing Kristian Woolf.

As for Toulouse, this is their Super League farewell although they’ll be hoping it’s a see you later rather than a full on goodbye and they can finish things on a high with a shock win over the Champions.

Kick-off time and TV channel

The game kicks off at 15:00.

There is no TV coverage of the game but BBC will show highlights on the Super League Show. However, Sky Sports Arena will show the Saints lifting the League Leaders’ Shield after the conclusion of Leeds vs Castleford in the battle for the final play-off spot.

Predicted Line-ups

St Helens
Though St Helens aren’t quite at full strength they’re much closer with the return of eight senior players though the likes of Alex Walmsly, Will Hopoate and Mark Percival are still out. The big call for Kristian Woolf to make is whether Ben Davies starts in the halves with Joe Batchelor at centre or whether he starts in the centres with James Roby at seven.
