WIGAN will put clear water between themselves and the rest of Super League if they beat early season rivals Leeds Rhinos tonight.
The two giants are the only remaining sides with an unbeaten record so something will have to give in front of an expected fuill house at Headingley.
Warriors coach John Monie is eagerly looking forward to the showdown.
"Yes this is a big game, but every week is a big week in Super League. Leeds are a very good side and this season appear to be tougher in the forwards. New coach Graham Murray has got them going well.
"They are a well balanced side and with Harris and Blackmore in the backs will pose a tough test.
"It should be a great game as both sides are undefeated and Headingley is a great arena.
"But this is not going to be a title decider. There are plenty of sides which think they are good enough to win and there will be plenty of upsets along the way."
WIGAN: Radlinski, Gilmour, Connolly, Moore, Robinson, Paul, Smith, Cowie, McCormack, Mestrov, Betts, Cassidy, Farrell. Subs: Holgate, Haughton, Johnson, Clarke.
