A marathon day of Rugby League action at Wembley wraps up with the 1895 Cup final as Wakefield Trinity take on Sheffield Eagles.

The national stadium will play host to a triple-header on Saturday – with the Women’s Challenge Cup and the 1895 Cup deciders bookending the showpiece Men’s Challenge Cup final between Wigan Warriors and Warrington Wolves.

Sheffield can become the first team to win the competition on more than one occasion, having tasted success in its inaugural season in 2019, after punching their ticket for Wembley with a 28-18 victory over York Knights last month.

To do so, the Eagles will have to beat runaway Championship leaders Wakefield, who have opened up a five-point gap at the top of the table after just 10 games and hammered Bradford Bulls 40-14 in the semi-final.

A revamped format for the 1895 Cup, which allows Championship and League 1 clubs to compete in their own knock-out competition, has meant more games in 2024 but that will take nothing away from what is expected to be a hard-fought final in late evening Wembley sunshine.
