Match preview

Warrington Wolves were 8-1 for Betfred Super League Grand Final glory at the start of the season but they are now 7-2 following a run of nine wins from their last 11 matches.

And Steve Price's Wolves are just 1-4 to maintain their title hunt with a win over Leeds Rhinos at the Halliwell Jones Stadium on Monday.

The in-form Wire have been rampant in recent weeks, winning their last six matches in a run which includes victories over title rivals Wigan and champions St Helens.

The Wolves are not just winning games, they are dominating them, with five of those six matches seeing them post points totals of 40, 44, 38, 62 and 38. Only Saints have been able to keep them quiet with Warrington running out 6-2 winners in a war of attrition just over a month ago.

Warrington have won each of their last two at home to Leeds by scores of 32-6 and 48-12 and a similar outcome looks likely again despite the Rhinos' recent revival.

Leeds have won their last two following their return to action after almost a month off due to Covid protocols but those triumphs came against the bottom two sides, Salford and Leigh, and this is a huge step up in class for the Headingley men.

Wire are Super League's leading scorers with 73 tries this season, 14 more than top of the table Catalans Dragons, and they are likely to be too hot for Leeds to handle.

The tries have been coming from all over the pitch with centre Ben Currie helping himself to eight this season.

That's just two behind the Wolves' leading scorers Jake Mamo and Gareth Widdop but he is twice the price to open the scoring against the Rhinos which looks a value each-way bet.
