Sunday's Betfred Challenge Cup semi-final predictions

Leigh Leopards have already beaten Warrington Wolves this season and they will fancy their chances of repeating that success when they try to secure a Challenge Cup final spot on Sunday afternoon at the Totally Wicked Stadium.

Adrian Lam's team are third in the table and hot on the heels of Hull Kingston Rovers and Leigh Leopards, while Warrington are six places and five points behind them.

Leigh have picked up five successive wins in all competitions, including a 18-14 victory in Rivals Round over Easter. The Leopards have won three of their last four games against Warrington and the Wire have some costly injuries to deal with.

Hooker Danny Walker and halfback George Williams are sidelined, while fellow playmaker Marc Sneyd is back but may need to play with a mask due to a fractured eye socket.

Challenge Cup semi-finals can be won and lost on how teams handle the occasion and a pinpoint kicking game is also vital. A fully fit Sneyd would provide that but Leigh should be able to take advantage of the injuries to Warrington's key players.

Lam's team are relentless through the middle of the park and the confidence they have built on their winning run should push them over the line.
