Wigan Warriors Warrington Wolves
Both sides are on losing runs at present and both need to show something here today,Wigan have lost 3 o the trot ot Saints,Bradford and Catalans but there is no real slide there those 3 teams are ruling the league this season and to lose to them was no big shock really,I have said for a while now that I don't fancy Wigan this season at all and this form slide if you want to call it that is more a case of Wigan just not being a good enough team in alot of ways,they are at home and should win this match but I would'nt bet the house on it,man for man the Wolves have a far more menacing side and could easily get over the Warriors if they play the game well.
Wigan are fresh from a great morale boosting 106-8 Challenge Cup win against Whitehaven and they also welcome back Leuliuai from test duty last week so things are looking rosy for them in alot of ways but they have lost their last 3 in the SL and have'nt looked good for a while now,their chances of stay in the top 5 are slipping away from them and the desperation factor for them should be getting the better of them,they will show up for this match but they should be all out to win at least.
The Wovles have also been far below their best but they did bounce back after 4 losses to beat Huddrsfield in their last match and that should see them get things right here today,they went down to saints in the Challenge cup last week but did play well and scored a few points as well which was good for them to get that scoring feeling back under thier wings,I do like the Wolves and view them as a very well put together side who just don't show up in defence,but in recent times they have turned up in matches against Wigan.
Both sides are even on the log jam in the table and are both in 4th spot on equal points but Wolves sit higher due their better points difference,recent results and the Wolves have won 6 of the last 8 played between both sides inclding winning the last 4 straight,3 of those matches have been at Warrigton while they beat Wigan earlier in the season 32-20 and won last seasons fixture at Wigan 10-16 in Rd 2.
Wigan play well at home but i'm on the Wolves here today,they have great recent record at Wigan and against them and they have been showing signsof comming back to life inthe last few weeks,they have a verywell put together side and should be able to stay with Wigan,the Wolves have scored more than 28 points more than Wigan on the season but they have also conceeded less than Wigan on the season also,the Wolves main worry is their defence as they allow far to many soft trys,but with the team the Wolves have I give them every chance of knocking over Wigan here tonight and no mater the result ths match should be tight...take the Wolves with the 6 on offer and don't be surprised if they win this one also....Good Luck
