CASTLEFORD TIGERS TEAM NEWS: MCSHANE COULD RETURN
Paul McShane is hoping to prove his fitness for this contest as the influential hooker aims to make his return from injury. He almost played last week but was given an extra week to recover from an arm issue.
21-MAN SQUAD: Hooley, I. Senior, Miller, Watts, McShane, El Zakhem, Mellor, Westerman, Horne, Milnes, Namo, Qareqare, Martin, Tate, Hill, Johnson, Rooney, Hindmarsh, Hoy, C. Hall, Windley
WARRINGTON WOLVES TEAM NEWS: DUFTY MISSES OUT
Matt Dufty scored a hat-trick in last week’s win but did so despite suffering a leg injury early in that contest. It is significant enough to sideline him here with Max Wood taking his place in the squad.
21-MAN SQUAD: Ashton, Bateman, Crowther, Currie, Drinkwater, Harrison, Holroyd, King, Lindop, Musgrove, Nicholson, Philbin, Powell, Tai, Taylor-Wray, Thewlis, Vaughan, Walker, Williams, Wood, Yates
CASTLEFORD TIGERS VS WARRINGTON WOLVES PREDICTION
Castleford Tigers’ poor run of form continued as they went down to Huddersfield Giants at Magic Weekend and now run into a tough Warrington Wolves outfit. The visitors have lost just one of their last eight games and combined with four straight losses for the Tigers, it is hard to envisage anything other than a comfortable away success in this contest.
CASTLEFORD TIGERS VS WARRINGTON WOLVES TIP: WARRINGTON WOLVES -10
