THE TEAM NEWS
HULL KR
- Hull KR earned their first win of the season as they got the better of Castleford Tigers in what turned into a straightforward success last week and they will be eager to build on that performance but face a tough task against reigning champions St. Helens.
- Rovers will need to be at their very best to topple their opponents but they could be boosted by the return of former Saints fullback Lachlan Coote as he returns to the 21-man squad following a hamstring injury but the club have been hit by a stomach bug this week and that could result in several changes to their matchday 17.
21-man squad: 1 Lachlan Coote, 3 Brad Takairangi, 4 Shaun Kenny-Dowall, 5 Ryan Hall, 7 Jordan Abdull, 8 Albert Vete, 9 Matt Parcell, 10 George King, 11 Dean Hadley, 12 Kane Linnett, 13 Matty Storton, 14 Jez Litten, 16 Korbin Sims, 17 Elliot Minchella, 18 Jimmy Keinhorst, 19 Will Dagger, 20 Mikey Lewis, 24 Sam Wood, 25 Greg Richards, 26 Tom Garratt, 27 Frankie Halton
Unavailable: Ben Crooks, Will Maher, Luis Johnson, Rowan Milnes
Questionable: Lachlan Coote, Jimmy Keinhorst, Dean Hadley, Korbin Sims
ST. HELENS
- St. Helens made light work of Wakefield Trinity last week as their perfect start to the year continued with what was their third successive victory and they will be confident of extending their winning streak.
- Saints have been comfortable in all three of their games so far having conceded just a solitary try in each contest and while they have lost Curtis Sironen to a ban, they are able to name yet another extremely strong squad for this clash.
21-man squad: 1 Jack Welsby, 2 Tommy Makinson, 3 Will Hopoate, 4 Mark Percival, 6 Jonny Lomax, 7 Lewis Dodd, 8 Alex Walmsley, 9 James Roby, 10 Matty Lees, 11 Sione Mata’utia, 12 Joe Batchelor, 13 Morgan Knowles, 14 Joey Lussick, 15 Louie McCarthy-Scarsbrook, 17 Agnatius Paasi, 18 Kyle Amor, 19 Jake Wingfield, 20 James Bell, 21 Josh Simm, 22 Ben Davies, 23 Konrad Hurrell.
Unavailable: Regan Grace, Curtis Sironen
Questionable: Will Hopoate
THE PREDICTION
Hull KR got off the mark at the third time of asking thanks to seeing off Castleford Tigers last week but they will find it tough going to make it back-to-back wins as they host defending champions St. Helens. The away side have looked formidable in defence so far and while Rovers will attempt to give the ball some air in order to ask questions of that sturdy defence, the hosts are likely to fall short with the class of Saints likely to shine through with them being able to cover the -10 handicap.
