Wigan Warriors take on Warrington Wolves tonight in Las Vegas and the squads have now been confirmed.
The game has been on every Super League fan’s mind since it was announced but it is now finally here with Matt Peet and Sam Burgess selecting their 17-man squads for the big clash.
Wigan are looking to build off the back of their impressive win over Hull FC whilst Warrington are aiming to become the fourth Super League side to make it three wins from three.
Both head coaches had named unchanged 21-man squads for the game at Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium, however, there were still questions over who Sam Burgess would play in the halves.
Having opted for the experience of Stefan Ratchford in Round One and the tough of Oli Leyland in Round Two, it was unclear which way the Warrington coach would go but we now have an answer with both teams confirmed.
