Stadium
The match takes place at the Totally Wicked Stadium, still known to some by its original name of Langtree Park, which is the home of Saints.
The modern stadium is one of the best Rugby League specific stadiums in the UK and offers one of the best atmospheres for big matches.
Featuring a great mix of seating, terracing and corporate facilities, the Totally Wicked has quickly become one of the most popular stadiums for fans and with a capacity of around 18,000, it is the perfect size for a club such as Saints and a fantastic venue for this match up.
The ground, which first opened in 2011, has played host to many major matches and has also helped the club to create revenue away form the sport with it also hosting many non-rugby related events such as concerts.
Location
The match takes place in the Peasley Cross district of the town of St Helens, which is in the county of Merseyside in the north-west of England.
That puts it at the far end of the M62 corridor, which is thought of as the heartlands of the sport in England, which is highlighted by the fact that Wigan, Warrington, Leigh and Widnes are all within a short drive of the town.
About
Although there is only around 10 miles between the 2 clubs stadiums, this match isn’t thought of as a local derby in the same way that clubs so close often have a local rivalry.
That is for a number of reasons including the fact that both clubs’ biggest rivals are the Wigan Warriors but despite that, there is still plenty of local interest in the game come match day and the closeness of the towns makes sure that there is a good backing from the away side in attendance come match day.
