Warrington have two teams in the competition, the Blues are members of the Chryso Division the section which Witton played in last season. Witton have put in some decent performances in the league so far but the cup like other competitions are a one-off so anything can happen.

The game is being staged on a 3G Pitch in Skelmersdale and will be played to a finish with extra time and penalties if required to decide who progresses into the last four.
