Wigan Warriors v Castleford Tigers Preview
The Wigan Warriors take on the Castleford Tigers in a match up that always tends to be an entertaining and which more often than not is a game that remains in the balance throughout.
The Wigan Warriors are one of the game’s most successful teams whilst the Tigers are one of those clubs who are there or there about’s and who go into every game knowing that if they play to the best of their ability, they can and do defeat anybody on their day.
The 2 sides have similar approaches to the game as well as both teams are very structured and both teams have quality throughout that can take advantage of any slip ups from their opponents.
That sets this up to be an entertaining 80 minutes of action and one that will be well worth watching.

Stadium
The DW Stadium plays host to this game and is of course the home ground of the Wigan Warriors.
The all seater stadium is one of the biggest in the Super League and that can be to it’s detriment on some occasions as the voice from the crowd gets lost but the Tigers normally have a decent following and that should give the players the perfect setting to perform and to give us an entertaining 80 minutes of Rugby League football.
