Preview
Wigan Warriors coach Michael Maguire keeps the side that beat Crusaders RL a week ago, although prop Eamon O’Carroll and centre Darrell Goulding make his initial squad. Phil Bailey and Michael McIlorum are the only injury absentees.
Former Hull FC hooker Josh Hodgson is in line to make his Hull Kingston Rovers debut after being included in coach Justin Morgan’s 19-man squad in place of centre Michael Ratu, who has a hamstring injury.
Rovers are still without second rower Ben Galea, who has yet to recover from a knee injury that kept him out of the opening win over Salford City Reds.
