Wigan and Huddersfield have both announced their 21-man squads for Friday night’s Super League fixture at Emerald Headingley Stadium (KO 7:45pm).
The game was due to take place on Thursday but, following the decision to end the season this week and begin the play-offs on November 12, put back by a day.
A win for the Warriors would see them claim the League Leaders’ Shield, however a loss would see them hand the trophy to local rivals St Helens
