Stadium
Huddersfield’s John Smith’s Stadium, still known by some as the McAlpine Stadium, is the host venue for this match.
Whilst it has to be said that for some matches the stadium can prove to be too large and affect the atmosphere of matches as fans are spread thinly between the 4 sides of the open stand of the stadium, for a match up such as this one it is a great venue.
Offering good views from every stand, the venue really comes alive for big matches when the stands are packed, and it proves to be the perfect setting for the players to entertain all of those in attendance.
The stadium has also proven to be a popular venue for neutral venues in the cup, where its size and location often makes it a great venue for Challenge Cup semi-finals.
It has also hosted a number of international matches including in the Rugby League World Cup when the event has been hosted in England.
Location
The match takes place in the town of Huddersfield, which is located in the county of West Yorkshire and is the most central location for a club in the sports M62 corridor heartland.
That often see’s big away following no matter which side of the Pennines a visiting team is from, but it is often when the Rhinos are in town that the biggest away following of the year turn up.
Leeds is also in West Yorkshire and is just a short drive/train journey away from the ground which is highlighted by the fact the stadium is found just off of Leeds Road in Huddersfield.
