ST HELENS go up against Wigan Warriors this Friday night at the Totally Wicked Stadium with the game being broadcast live on Sky Sports.
Saints go into this one on the back of arguably their best result of the year after thrashing the Huddersfield Giants 48-6 at Super League’s Magic Weekend.
Meanwhile, Wigan produced one of their worst performances of the year in Newcastle, going down 46-22 to a rampant Catalans Dragons.
Team news and injuries
St Helens will welcome back Morgan Knowles following the end of his suspension with Jake Wingfield dropping out, but it remains to be seen if he will knock James Bell away from the loose-forward position. Mark Percival also came through last week’s win without fault after returning from injury.
Wigan’s Jai Field came through last week’s game unscathed with Brad Singleton coming back into the squad as Tom Forber drops out.
