Match preview

Second plays fourth in the Betfred Super League on Thursday and Warrington Wolves' visit to champions St Helens could be an absolute cracker.

It pits the best attack in the competition against the tightest defence and it will be intriguing to see if the Wolves can add to their tally of 58 tries this season.

Saints have conceded a miserly 70 points in their eight fixtures this season and have lost just once in the league in 2021.

The Wolves have lost two and drawn once but they have won their last three meetings with Saints, conceding just 22 points in the process.

This game could swing either way with so much talent on both sides but an eight-point start for Warrington looks more than generous and a bet on Gareth Widdop to score a try could also pay off.

The Wolves half-back has been in fantastic form, bagging nine tries in nine games this season, and 7-2 looks great value for him to cross the whitewash once again.
