The broadcast details for the upcoming rounds of Super League action have been confirmed, whilst one of the games for round 27 has also been locked in. Huddersfield Giants will play their final game at the Accu Stadium, their home since 1994, in round 27 when they host Castleford Tigers. As the Giants farewell the ground, so too will Sky Sports as that game has now been moved at the request of the broadcasters. Shifting from a Friday night fixture to Saturday at 3:00 pm, the Giants will host Castleford in both their final game at the Accu and their final game of the 2026 Super League season. Whilst not confirmed as an exclusive pick, the fact Sky have moved it suggests that it may be one, however, both Sky and the BBC have locked in their picks for rounds 25 and 26 with Leeds Rhinos featuring three times courtesy of their men’s and women’s teams both being selected for coverage.
