Sam Tomkins is among the players ruled out through injury for Catalans Dragons, with the squads named for their clash at Warrington Wolves and the other Friday-night Super League fixture between Hull KR and St Helens.
Hull KR have made three changes from the squad named ahead of their victory over Castleford Tigers, with Lachlan Coote returning from a hamstring injury and Albert Vete from suspension.
Jimmy Keinhorst also returns to the squad, with Ethan Ryan, Will Tate and Phoenix Laulu-Togaga’e the trio to drop out of contention.
However, the Robins are still sweating on their team selection with a stomach bug travelling around the club which has struck down a number of players.
Ben Crooks (knee), Luis Johnson (foot), Rowan Milnes (ankle) and Will Maher (eye socket) are unavailable through injury.
St Helens only make one change to their squad, with James Bell included for the first time since signing from Leigh Centurions, in place of the suspended Curtis Sironen.
Will Hopoate is in contention having missed the last couple of rounds with a rib injury, but Regan Grace (bicep) remains out.
Warrington make two changes for the visit of Catalans, with Ben Currie back in contention following a sternum injury and Oliver Holmes returning from a two-match ban.
Stefan Ratchford and Mike Cooper are included despite picking up knocks in the victory at Toulouse Olympique last week, but Wire remain without Billy Magoulias (ankle), James Harrison (ACL), Greg Minikin (ACL) and Connor Wrench (back).
There is widespread disruption for opponents Catalans, who make five changes with their squad decimated further this week.
Man of Steel Tomkins has been ruled out with a knee injury, while Dean Whare and Matthieu Laguerre are also injured and Joe Chan misses out through concussion.
Michael McIlorum is also suspended, joining Gil Dudson and Dylan Napa on the naughty step for the Dragons, who call in Mickael Goudemand (returning from his own concussion), Corentin Le Cam, César Rougé, Romain Franco and Florian Vailhen.
Catalans are also without the injured Arthur Mourgue (ankle) and Julian Bousquet (arm).
