Castleford v Huddersfield

■ Kick- off: Thursday 8.15pm

■ Team news: Castleford have full- back Gareth O’Brien available after he was Cup- tied last week and second- row Jesse Sene- Lefao returns from self- isolation but injuries rule out three half- backs - Peter Mata’utia, Danny Richardson and Jake Trueman - plus Sosaia Feki so Callum Turner could feature. Huddersfield see stand- off Lee Gaskell make his return from a broken thumb but coach Luke Robinson may not risk him and they are only able to name a 20- man squad. Hooker Adam O’Brien has been ruled out for the season and fellow hooker Reiss Butterworth is struggling with illness.
