Warrington Wolves face fellow top 6 rivals London Broncos in a must win game for both teams.

Warrington and London do battle at the Halliwell Jones Stadium and the Broncos are on a high after their stunning 32-24 win over champions Leeds in Perpignan and will be looking to extend their unbeaten run to eight matches, despite the absence of leading tryscorer Luke Dorn.

Warrington’s own impressive run came to an abrupt end at Wigan a week ago and coach Paul Cullen, whose side lost to the Broncos in the opening match of the season, is anticipating another tough fixture.

"We expect the Broncos to be as competent as they were six months ago," said Cullen. "They have recruited a lot of very experienced NRL players who have made a massive impact on the way the Broncos play this year in comparison to last."

The Wolves are still without stand-off Lee Briers (thigh) and prop Mark Hilton (back) for their engage Super League clash with London Broncos while centre Toa Kohe Love (chest)  is also missing but utility back Graham Appo is set to return.

London are without leading tryscorer Luke Dorn, who loses his ever-present record after sustaining a ‘dead leg’ in last week’s win over Leeds.

Winger Jon Wells and back row forward Danny Williams return from injury and coach Tony Rea also included prop Francis Stephenson and full-back Zeb Luisi in his initial squad.

Warrington 18-man: Grose, Fa'afili, Martin Gleeson, Gaskell, N. Wood, Leikvoll, Clarke, Hilton, Swann, Wainwright, Noone, Mark Gleeson, Westwood, P. Wood, Lima, Appo, Pickersgill, Bridge.

London 18-man: Armour, Bradley-Qalilawa, Haumono, Hopkins, Leuluai, Lolohea, Mateo, McLinden, Mbu, O'Halloran, Purdham, Smith, Sykes, Tookey, Trindall, Wells, Williams, Highton.

Referee: I Smith
