Having missed the Rivals Round clash against Salford, powerful centre Ricky Leutele has been named, while Matt Moylan will face Wigan for the first time in his career following his move from the NRL ahead of 2024.

The current Challenge Cup holders are currently without key players Edwin Ipape, John Asiata and Tom Amone due to injury, while Warriors academy product Hanley has enjoyed eight tries in 2024 in place of the injured Tom Briscoe on the wing.

Leigh 21-man squad: O’Brien, Hardaker, Leutele, Charnley, Moylan, Lam, Mulhern, O’Donnell, Hughes, Norman, Davis, Halton, Trout, Nakubuwai, Chamberlain, McNamara, Hanley, Nisbet, Baxter, Darbyshire, Dwyer.
