Leigh Leopards enter Magic Weekend sitting just two points outside the top six and view Saturday's clash with Warrington Wolves as their moment to announce play-off credentials. The Hill Dickinson Stadium showdown kicks off at 5.30pm on July 5, with both sides battling for momentum in the second half of the season.

Leigh's resurgence has been impressive - seven wins from their last nine matches, with both defeats coming against Hull KR. This represents a dramatic turnaround from their injury-plagued start that saw them bottom of the table. However, their only victory this season against a top-six side remains that opening-round triumph over Leeds Rhinos.

Warrington arrive with significant injury concerns, as Josh Thewlis, Jordy Crowther, and Arron Lindop join an absentee list that now totals eleven players. Despite the setbacks, head coach Sam Burgess insists there are no excuses for his team's performance level.

For Leigh coach Adrian Lam, this match represents a crucial opportunity to prove they belong among the elite contenders. With the elimination play-offs beginning September 19, both clubs understand the importance of building form ahead of the decisive autumn period.
