Warrington Wolves vs Wigan Warriors: Kick-off time, TV channel and predicted line-ups

In a repeat of the 2013, 2016 and 2018 Grand Finals, Warrington host Wigan tonight.

The Wolves have had a struggle of a season so far but their Easter form has given them a much needed boost going into the game as they look to get their season back on course.

Wigan meanwhile are certainly on course to meeting their objectives in 2022. They sit joint top of the table and they can cement their early title credentials with a win here.

Kick-off time and TV channel

The game kicks off at 20:00.

TV coverage will start from 19:30 on Sky Sports Arena.

Predicted Line-ups

Warrington Wolves
After their best win of the season against the high flying Huddersfield Giants, Daryl Powell is unlikely to change much of his side. In fact, it could be a case of one change with George Williams set to return to the team in time to face former club Wigan. He’ll return to the halves alongside youngster Riley Dean with Peter Mata’utia returning to the centres. This would see Connor Wrench drop out of the side.

Wigan Warriors
Wigan’s Matt Peet has plenty of positive headaches to contemplate going into this one. After defeating Salford last week without Brad Singleton and Willie Isa, will Peet bring both forwards back into the fold and if so who will their return be at the expense of. It’s possible we see a very different bench to the one at the DW last Sunday. It may be one full of size in an effort to blow the Wolves away.
