The 2019 Super League Grand Final is finally here after a long season of twists and turns which saw a record high points tally for a bottom-placed side and a record gap between first and second.
St Helens are the heavy favourites to lift their 14th league title (Rugby League Championship and Super League combined) in their history, while Salford Red Devils are looking to secure their seventh crown.
Since the Super League 's inception, though, Saints have been one of the most dominant teams, winning six titles including five Grand Finals in 1999, 2000, 2002, 2006 and 2014. Salford, meanwhile, are playing in their first Grand Final of the summer era.
Justin Holbrook's men booked their place in the Grand Final thanks to a 40-10 win over Wigan Warriors just under two weeks ago, while Salford also defeated Wigan 28-4 last week to claim their place at Old Trafford.
Saints, who won the League Leaders' Shield for finishing first, may have ended the regular season 18 points clear of third-place Salford but a close contest is expected in Manchester.
The big question is when do the two teams do battle at Old Trafford ? Here are all the important dates and times you need to know.
