If we look at the last 10 meetings between these sides, we could generally summarize that the winner will probably achieve a double digit margin.
Wigan 12, Huddersfield 30 (SLR24, 9/8/13)
Huddersfield 22, Wigan 10 (SLR3, 16/2/13)
Huddersfield 12, Wigan 32 (SLR14, 18/5/12)
Wigan 16, Huddersfield 20 (SLR1, 5/2/12)
Wigan 46, Huddersfield 12 (SLR18, 25/6/11)
Huddersfield 6, Wigan 20 (SLR6, 18/3/11)
Wigan 16, Huddersfield 18 (SLR25, 15/8/10)
Huddersfield 30, Wigan 38 (SLR14, 16/5/10)
Huddersfield 10, Wigan 28 (SLR13, 2/5/10) - at Murrayfield, Edinburgh
Huddersfield 48, Wigan 16 (SLR27, 13/9/09)
Huddersfield have won 3 out of the last 4 at Wigan and won by 12-18 points twice this year.
So Wigan would need a three try swing if they were to win.
For me, Wigan would need to be going with a Pack like this to stand up to the Giants:
O'Loughlin, Lauaki, Mossop, Hansen or Farrell, Taylor and McIlorum
I would not want to go with any of Flower, Tuson, Dudson, Lloyd, Crosby and Burke as starters
Wigan 19-man squad: Charnley, Crosby, Dudson, Farrell, Flower, Gelling, Green, Greenwood, Hansen, Hughes, McIlorum, Mossop, A. Powell, Richards, Smith, Taylor, Thornley, L. Tomkins, S. Tomkins.
But Wigan will have to - they are missing O'Loughlin and Lauaki and I think they are being dominated in the forwards in the past 10 games or so through lack of size, guys who are robust rather than powerful
Huddersfield 19-man squad: Grix, Cudjoe, Wardle, McGillvary, Brough, Robinson, Crabtree, Lunt, Kopczak, Ferres, Faiumu, Lawrence, Patrick, Chan, Ta'ai, Murphy, Ferguson, Blackmore, Wood.
This looks a winning squad to me, but the value is not too great at 2/3 on...
Let me check my phone on the way back for better markets fella
We'd need some value to place our stakes - I will update by 630 and do more analysis.
Cheers
