Hull Kingston Rovers are looking to build on their stunning start to the season on Sunday.
Justin Morgan's side pushed Leeds Rhinos close in their opener and then pulled off a shock 24-22 win over St Helens.
Victory in the lair of the Catalans Dragons at the weekend has put the Robins joint second in the early season standings.
New recruit Chev Walker is still out with a shin injury and Morgan has made one change to his squad with Kirk Netherton making way for Australian hooker Ben Fisher.
Injuries
Warrington Wolves' confidence has been dented by their defeat at Knowsley Road last time out and they face a tough task to get back on track against the in-form Robins.
Injuries are also beginning to mount for the Wolves with influential centre Matt King (calf) and half-back Michael Monaghan (hamstring) real doubts following the injuries they picked up against the Saints.
Utility back Chris Bridge could miss the rest of the season meanwhile, after undergoing surgery to repair his ruptured Achilles tendon.
Full-back Stuart Reardon and prop Paul Wood are still sidelined as well, so Paul Cullen will not have it easy trying to get his side back on track.
Hull KR 20-man squad: Briscoe, Fox, Steel, Jake Webster, Welham, Fitzhenry, Vella, James Webster, Fisher, Aizue, Murrell, Galea, Newton, Gene, Crossman, Mills, Jason Netherton, Chester, Cockayne, Menzies.
Warrington 20-man squad: Hicks, M. Gleeson, Penny, Briers, Monaghan, Morley, Clarke, Rauhihi, L. Anderson, Westwood, V. Anderson, M. Gleeson, Parker, Johnson, Grix, Riley, Bracek, Harrison, Cooper, Mitchell.
