THE TEAM NEWS
CASTLEFORD TIGERS
- Castleford Tigers were pitiful once again and look set for a very long season as they were beaten for the fourth game in succession to begin the campaign.
- Interim boss Andy Last failed to oversee a change in fortunes as they were on the end of one-sided defeat to Huddersfield Giants and they must contend with the loss of Jake Mamo who has opted to retire while Alex Sutcliffe also drops out having failed a HIA.
21-man squad: Eden, Turner, Fonua, Faraimo, Widdop, Miller, Lawler, McShane, Edwards, Mellor, Westerman, Massey, Milner, Broadbent, Vete, Mustapha, Smith, Matagi, Hall, Qareqare, Watts
Unavailable: Danny Richardson (Injured), Niall Evalds (Injured), Alex Sutcliffe (Injured),
Questionable: Bureta Faraimo, Jordan Turner
LEEDS RHINOS
- Leeds Rhinos made it back-to-back wins with a convincing win over Wakefield Trinity thanks to a strong second half showing last week, keeping their opponents scoreless in the process.
- Neither side could break the deadlock in the first half but Leeds were far too good in the second, running out 26-0 victors and while they have lost Ash Handley for this encounter, they do welcome Kruise Leeming back to the squad.
21-man squad: Myler, Fusitu’a, Newman, Macdonald, Austin, Sezer, Leeming, Tetevano, Bentley, Martin, Smith, O’Connor, Lisone, Olpherts, Sangare, Holroyd, McDonnell, Walters, Roberts, Donaldson, Johnson
Unavailable: Luke Hooley (Injured), Mikolaj Oledzki (Injured), Morgan Gannon (Injured), Ash Handley (Injured)
Questionable: Kruise Leeming
THE PREDICTION
Castleford Tigers are yet to get going this season and they were guilty of producing another terrible display as they were comfortably beaten by Huddersfield Giants last week. The Tigers have been extremely poor so far and things could be about to worsen for them here as they take on an improving Leeds Rhinos outfit. The visitors have won their last two and managed to nil Wakefield Trinity last time out with that success setting them up for another victory where they can win by 13+ points.
