The other Wire-Hull KR fixture taking place on Friday
FANS heading to Warrington Wolves' clash with Hull KR on Friday night can get two matches for the price of one.
The Super League Round 12 meeting between the two sides who will meet at Wembley Stadium in the Challenge Cup Final next month will be the main attraction as The Wire bid to lay a marker down against the table-topping Robins.
Before then, however, there will be a curtain-raiser fixture between the two clubs' reserve teams.
Warrington's second string have started the season in fine form and currently lead the Reserves competition having won all five of their matches thus far.
They have beaten Wakefield, Leigh, Bradford, Hull FC and St Helens to date and face a Hull KR side who have won two and lost four of their six Reserves matches.
The Halliwell Jones Stadium turnstiles will open early to allow any fans wanting to watch the game into the ground early at no extra cost, with the match kicking off at 5.15pm.
Indeed, each of Warrington's next three home fixtures will feature curtain-raiser fixtures, with the reserves also facing their Huddersfield Giants counterparts on Saturday, June 21, ahead of the Super League Round 15 fixture (kick off 12.30pm, first-team fixture at 3pm).
Before then, the academy team will take to The Halliwell Jones Stadium field against Castleford Tigers a week on Friday – May 30 – at 5.35pm before the Super League clash between the two clubs.
