St.Helens Head Coach Paul Wellens has announced his 21-man squad to take on Wakefield Trinity Friday, 8th August at the DIY Kitchens Stadium, which kicks off at 8pm.
St.Helens First Team 21-man squad announcement is sponsored by St Helens Flooring.
For the second time this season, our Red V visit the DIY Kitchens Stadium for a tough test against Wakefield Trinity, and our men will be out to get a second away win over the West Yorkshire side.
Last time out St.Helens put Castleford Tigers to the sword in a comfortable 40-0 home victory, and that result moved the Red V into fourth place in the league table. The Play-Offs race continues to heat up as we move towards the run-in.
Wakefield Trinity are also firmly in the top six places race and earned arguably their most impressive result of the season in their last fixture a fortnight ago against Leeds Rhinos. Mason Lino’s last-minute drop-goal sent Belle Vue into raptures ahead of a week off due to the split round.
The Saints are looking to make it three wins over Wakefield in 2025, having already beaten them both at home and away. Wellens’ men went to the DIY Kitchens Stadium at the start of March, winning 6-26, and then backed that up with another victory at the Totally Wicked Stadium 26-14 in April.
Powell will no doubt be motivating his men to avoid a third loss to the Saints, whilst Wellens will want his men to build more consistency and be victorious over a fellow side that is currently in the top six.
It makes for an exciting showdown, and we hope to pack out that away terrace at the DIY Kitchens Stadium!
