Castleford v Wigan

For the first time ever, live Super League comes to the BBC – and the coverage starts with a mouthwatering clash between Castleford Tigers and reigning champions Wigan Warriors.

Matt Peet’s mighty Wigan beat Catalans Dragons in October’s grand final, and in ‘Man of Steel’ Bevan French, the flying Jai Field and the all-round brilliance of half-back Harry Smith, they're the team to beat again in 2024.

For Craig Lingard’s Castleford, they’re looking to start their campaign in style after winning only six league games in 2023, which saw them finish a disappointing 11th.

Tanya Arnold presents, Kevin Brown provides the analysis, and Matt Newsum is the commentator.
