The fixtures for the rest of the trimmed-down season - now 22 rounds, instead of 29 - have been revealed.

Wigan had played seven games before the season was halted in mid-March with them on top of the ladder - meaning they have 15 games still to go to try and secure a top-four spot.

Leeds' home ground will stage all round eight games - three on Saturday, three on Sunday - with St Helens and Warrington successively hosting the following two rounds. They will all be behind-closed-doors and all televised by Sky Sports.

The hope is limited crowds will be allowed back into venues from September, so venues and dates have not been confirmed from that point.

Wigan will play two midweek games - against St Helens on Wednesday, Sep 30 and Toronto on Weds Oct 14.

Their Challenge Cup tie with Warrington is expected to take place on the weekend of Aug 23. The play-offs – comprising four teams - are scheduled for mid/late-November, while

the Grand Final will take place at the end of November. The matches will be played without scrums and with the new ‘six-again’ rule.

Warriors' full fixtures are below - the (h) and (a) indicate how the fixtures have been published in case teams are able to use their own grounds then, but venues have yet to be confirmed. Toronto are expected to play their remaining 'home' games in the UK but Catalans plan to stage their home matches in France.
