Next Up: Warrington Wolves

Coming off the back of Rivals Round, Leeds Rhinos are back on home turf to take on Warrington Wolves in round seven of the Betfred Super League at AMT Headingley, kick off 8pm.

Here's a preview ahead of the fixture:


Our opposition

Under the eye of new head coach Sam Burgess, Warrington have started this season in high spirits and enter round seven in red hot form.

Burgess' move back to UK brought an end to the former England captain's spell at South Sydney Rabbitohs, where he has previously been an assistant coach. Experienced NRL forwards Lachlan Fitzgibbon and Zane Musgrove followed suit to bolster a Wire pack that lost Sam Kasiano and Thomas Mikaele in the off-season, plus Toby King's return to the club, after winning the Grand Final last season with Wigan, hasn't seen the centre miss a beat. The start of the season has seen Matt Dufty come to the forefront of the Wolves attack as the full back has six tries and five try assists so far, as well as the most tackle busts and clean breaks in the competition. Wingers Josh Thewlis and Matty Ashton has also started the season in try scoring form; Thewlis scoring three times in the win over London in round five.

After five rounds, the Wolves sit atop the league table with four wins from five matches and come to AMT Headingley looking to win their fifth game on the bounce. Despite having a tough start to the season with a 16-10 defeat to Catalans at the Stade Gilbert Brutus, Burgess' side have been convincing against Hull FC, Castleford and London, whilst also pipping Hull KR to a 22-20 result in one of the games of the season so far. 

Having lost their last two meetings against the Rhinos on the road by two points, Warrington are up for a tough challenge against Rohan Smith's side, before they clash with Leigh, Salford and Hull FC in their next three games going into May, alongside a Challenge Cup quarter final match.
