The Penrith Panthers are aiming to cap off their NRL premiership three-peat with a World Club Challenge win over Wigan at DW Stadium.
The clash kicks off at 7.00am AEST on Sunday Morning with the Panthers aiming to avenge their 13-12 loss to St Helens on Australian soil last year.

The Panthers are yet to taste World Club Challenge success during their dynasty after the 2022 fixture was cancelled due to the pandemic.
Nathan Cleary and his side will aim for some unfinished business as they look to add the last piece to their bulging trophy cabinet.
Wigan present another tough challenge and will be buoyed by St Helens’ performance last year given they will be on home soil in the UK in 2024.
The Panthers have never won a World Club Challenge in their history with Wigan beating them in 1991 and Bradford in 2004.
The Panthers get one last chance to test themselves before their season opener against the Storm on March 8.
