Warriors (1/2) and Trinity (16/1) are William Hill’s worst results in Super League outright book
Wigan Warriors and Wakefield Trinity have emerged as William Hill’s biggest liabilities of the Super League markets with the Warriors backed into 1/2 favourites from 9/4, while Wakefield have come into 16/1 from 40s over the season.

Spokesperson for William Hill, Lee Phelps, said: “Ahead of this weekend’s Super League semi-finals, we are wary of Wigan Warriors and Wakefield Trinity as they are the biggest liabilities in our outright book.
“Wigan are currently 1/2 favourites but had hit a high of 9/4 earlier in the season after injuries to some key players. Our punters took advantage and as it stands, they account for over two thirds of all stakes in the outright betting.
“At the other end of the spectrum we have Wakefield who are currently 16/1 but were as big as 40s earlier in the season, with a number of customers taking advantage of that price.
“A Leeds Rhinos v Warrington Wolves final would be the dream for us, but with Wigan looking very tough to beat and Wakefield flying for the past couple of months, we’re bracing ourselves for a losing final for our books.”
