Catalan to face London and Widnes
Catalan are to host London Broncos and Widnes in pre-season friendlies at Gilbert Brutus Stadium.
The Broncos, who were recently saved from collapse by a move to Barnet’s The Hive Stadium, will travel to Perpignan on Saturday January 25, with Widnes making the trip the following week.
Widnes have never beaten Catalan, and suffered a club record 76-6 defeat on their first visit in 2012, although the last meeting between the two sides ended in a 32-32 draw at Widnes in June.
Catalan kick-off the new Super League season with a trip to Hull on Sunday February 14, while the first visitors to France will be Leeds, on Friday February 28.
