Wigan have been doing it tough all year and may yet be playing their rugby elsewhere next season after a disappointing campaign which has seen them win just four matches. Their record, however, does include the outstanding shock result of the season when they beat high flying Bowdon.

Widnes, therefore, will do well to avoid this particular banana skin and go on to complete the double following a 26pts - 3 victory in the first game of the season back in September.

Games between these two sides are always tough and uncompromising, and Saturday's game will be no exception as both teams seek out a win as well as laying claim to the local derby bragging rights.

The game kicks off at 3.00pm.
