Verdict

Following a run of six defeats from seven games, Warrington Wolves are low on confidence and are quickly dropping down the Super League standings.

Daryl Powell's men were the early pace setters in the competition, though their torrid run has taken all wind out of their sails.

Wire came close to breaking their barren run last week, but ultimately, they came up short in a 20-24 defeat to rivals St Helens.

Scoring points has been a prevalent issue for Warrington during their poor run, but not as much as keeping other teams at bay.

The Wolves have conceded 22 or more points in six of their last seven games.

Wigan Warriors will be looking to capitalise on those woes as they welcome Powell's men to the DW Stadium.

Matt Peet's side were on a three-match winning run across all competitions before suffering a shock golden point defeat away at Wakefield Trinity.

That result may have been somewhat of an anomaly considering Wakefield's fresh wave of momentum.

Nevertheless, it leaves the Warriors six points away from league leaders Catalans Dragons in what is becoming an enthralling Super League campaign.

We are backing the hosts to close the gap on the French club. Not only are Wigan in better form, but they've also won the last four head-to-head meetings - including two this year.

Warrington were able to take St Helens to within four points last week and another close clash is expected.

With that in mind, Wigan to win with a 1-12 point margin is our recommendation in the betting market.
