Bradford Bulls v Warrington Wolves

Warrington Wolves travel to Odsal Stadium to face former World Champions Bradford. Warrington will be looking to follow up from the impressive win over Wigan last week with a first league win in Bradford since 1993.

The Bulls are hitting form at the right time and this showed in last weekends 58-0 hammering of Salford at The Willows, with winger Karl Pryce scoring his first ever hat-trick of tries for the Bulls in this his first season at the Bulls since turning pro.

Warrington will be boosted with the return of skipper Lee Briers, and his kicking game will be crucial if the Wolves are to finally win at Odsal.

In recent years, Warrington have been on the recieving end of many a thumping from the Bulls, and coach Paul Cullen will no doubt motivate the players around that fact.

Warrington have already beaten the Bulls this season by 35-32 last month at the Halliwell Jones Stadium, but Wolves will have to be on the guard as Bradford as well as leaking points can rattle a few points too.
