CASTLEFORD TIGERS will be hosting the Leeds Rhinos on Thursday evening with the fortunes of both sides differing hugely in recent weeks.
The Tigers, without a permanent head coach, have lost all four of their Super League games so far in 2023 whilst Leeds have won their last two.
Andy Last is currently interim boss of Castleford and will be hoping for a response following a dismal 36-6 loss to Huddersfield last weekend.
Team news and injuries
Last will be hoping to have talisman Paul McShane back in contention following his absence from last week, with Bureta Faraimo also being considered. George Griffin and Alex Sutcliffe sit out through injury as Sam Hall comes in.
Leeds, meanwhile, will be without Ash Handley following his injury in the win over Wakefield with Luis Roberts included. Justin Sangare and Kruise Leeming are also included after missing last week.
