WIGAN are in town and unlimited crowds are back at The Halliwell Jones Stadium...

It does not get much bigger than this outside of cup finals and play-off matches.

Here's everything you need to know about a crucial game for both sides...

What time is kick off?

The game gets underway at 7.45pm.

Can I still buy tickets today?

For the first time in 16 months – yes!

With limits on spectator numbers now lifted, the HJ is back at full capacity for the first time since March of last year.

Supporters are urged to buy their tickets in advance but cash turnstiles will be available in the South and West Stands.

Can I watch on TV?

Tonight's match is being shown live on Sky Sports, with coverage getting underway at 7.30pm on Sky Sports Arena.

What is the latest team news?

Warrington Wolves are playing their first game in over three weeks after a Covid outbreak within the squad and remain without several players for the game.

Josh Charnley is not named in the squad while Gareth Widdop and Matty Ashton (both ankle) continue to recover from injury.
