Wakefield Trinity and Wigan Warriors gear up for pivotal Super League clash

Wakefield Trinity head coach Daryl Powell faces three changes to his line‑up after injuries to Corey Hall and Mason Lino and a suspension for Jazz Tevaga. He has welcomed back Max Jowitt, Will Tate and Charlie Abraham, while retaining key play‑makers such as Oliver Pratt and Jake Trueman. Powell noted that Wakefield will try to limit the gap to the league leaders to two points after a narrow 26‑24 win over Hull KR.

Wigan Warriors coach Matt Peet returns Bevan French and Harry Smith to the squad, replacing Tom Forber and Nathan Lowe. The Warriors will also field rising talent Jack Farrimond, who Powell described as "dangerous" after his strong performances in recent games. Both sides have announced 21‑man squads ahead of the match at Belle Vue, with the result expected to influence Wigan’s push to move past St Helens in the table.
