Peet has made one change to his 21-man squad that beat Toulouse Olympique 36-16 in the south of France last weekend, with off-season recruit Dayon Sambou replacing the injured Bevan French, who faces around four months on the sidelines with a hamstring injury. Let’s get into our predicted Warriors line-up, shall we?
1. Fullback: Noah Hodkinson
With Jai Field (appendix) and French (hamstring) sidelined, Peet has a decision to make at fullback this week... There are a few options at his disposal, including a potential debut for homegrown talent Hodkinson, a specialist fullback, or shifting Zach Eckersley to fullback from his right wing spot. It's a tough call, but we think it will be Hodkinson's time to shine. The 20-year-old is in his second season with the first-team, having progressed through the club's famed youth system.

2. Wing: Zach Eckersley
Eckersley has made a fine start to life in the No. 2 jersey, with 10 tries to his name in five appearances in all competitions in 2026. The Oldham native is an option to play fullback, but we're predicting that he will keep his wing spot, having struck up an impressive partnership with Adam Keighran on the right edge.

3. Centre: Adam Keighran
Keighran has been one of Wigan's standout performers so far this year, building up a strong combination with Eckersley on the right edge. The Australian is one of the most accurate goal-kickers in Super League, with 32 goals to his name already this year. Photo: Stewart Frodsham
4. Centre: Liam Farrell
Farrell has done a fine job at left centre after filling the void in the absence of the injured Jake Wardle. Farrell himself will admit that he isn't a centre, but he is putting his hand up for the team and has done well out wide over the last couple of weeks. Photo: Dean Williams
