Team news: Wigan v Warrington (Sat)

James Messenger

Wigan are without three first-team players this weekend, while Warrington welcome back Jake Mamo and Tom Lineham. 

Adrian Lam makes three changes to the side that lost to Catalans in Barcelona last weekend. Jake Shorrocks, Oliver Partington and Jarrod Sammut return to the squad, taking the place of Romain Navarrete, Liam Marshall (shoulder) and Sam Powell.

Steve Price has made four changes following last week’s defeat at home to Hull FC. Jake Mamo and Tom Lineham both return from injury, while Harvey Livett and Matt Davis are also included. They take the place of Lama Tasi, Ben Westwood, Ryan Atkins (hamstring) and Stefan Ratchford (pectoral muscle).

Messenger’s money-maker: Tom Lineham is to mark his return to the side with the first try of the game is 10/1. 

Wigan’s 19-man squad: Joe Bullock, Joe Burgess, Tony Clubb, Morgan Escare, Ben Flower, Oliver Gildart, Joe Greenwood, Chris Hankinson, Zak Hardaker, Willie Isa, Tommy Leuluai, Sean O’Loughlin, Oliver Partington, Jarrod Sammut, Dan Sarginson, Jake Shorrocks, Morgan Smithies, Taulima Tautai, George Williams.

Warrington’s 19-man squad: Sitaleki Akauola, Blake Austin, Josh Charnley, Daryl Clark, Jason Clark, Mike Cooper, Ben Currie, Matt Davis, Bryson Goodwin, Chris Hill, Jack Hughes, Toby King, Tom Lineham, Harvey Livett, Jake Mamo, Ben Murdoch-Masila, Declan Patton, Joe Philbin, Danny Walker.

Wigan are priced at 7/4 to claim victory at Anfield, whereas Warrington are 1/2 favourites to close the gap at the top of the Betfred Super League to four points.
