Tough tests as pair face high flyers

Saddleworth Rangers and Oldham St Anne’s - both bottom of their respective divisions - face teams pushing for the title tomorrow.

Rangers, with four points from 20 games in Division One, play host to third-in-the-table Normanton Knights. Last week Rangers led Hunslet Warriors by four points with 10 minutes to go at Shaw Hall Bank Road, only for a try to ruin their hopes of a third league success of the season.

Saints will be playing Featherstone Lions at Higginshaw Road. There were positive signs from Mick Worrall’s side in their most recent clash, a 36-10 loss at Blackbrook.

Saints held a two-point advantage at half time and it wasn’t until in the final quarter that the hosts were able to pull away. Lions are two points adrift of leaders Millom.

Both matches kick-off at 2.30pm.
