LEEDS RHINOS host reigning champions St Helens on Friday night, live on Sky Sports.
Both go into this one on the back of very different Challenge Cup results with Leeds going down 18-14 at home to the Wigan Warriors last Saturday afternoon.
Saints, meanwhile, were able to cruise past Championship side Halifax Panthers last Friday night to set up a quarter-final tie with Hull FC.
Team news
Leeds will be without Blake Austin and Sam Lisone due to calf injuries, but Ash Handley, Luke Hooley and Leon Ruan return. James Bentley and Jack Sinfield are still out following their return to play protocols.
Saints will have Curtis Sironen and Konrad Hurrell back in contention, though Morgan Knowles is banned. Captain James Roby also returns after missing out on the Halifax victory.
