WARRINGTON Wolves will face Canadian club Toronto Wolfpack for the first time in the next round of the Challenge Cup.

The two were paired together in the sixth round draw of the competition, held live on BBC Radio 2 this morning, hosted by Warrington’s own Chris Evans.

Although Toronto came out of the hat as the home team, the game will be played at the Halliwell Jones Stadium on the weekend of May 12/13.

The Wolfpack squad includes some Wolves links, with prop Ashton Sims and Gareth O’Brien among their numbers.

Warrington booked their place in the sixth round with a comfortable win over Bradford at the weekend, while Toronto defeated Barrow.

Elsewhere, Widnes host Leeds and St Helens travel to Castleford in two of the four all Super League ties.
