ST HELENS head coach Paul Rowley has made two changes to his 21-man squad, with Shane Wright returning from concussion protocols and Nene Macdonald from knee surgery.
Macdonald hasn’t played for six weeks, but Deon Cross, who failed a Head Injury Assessment in Saints’ victory over Hull FC, steps out of the squad selection, as does youngster Cole Marsh.
Daryl Powell has made two changes to the Wakefield Trinity side that beat Bradford Bulls 52-12 last weekend.
Max Jowitt and Mason Lino miss out on selection with youngster Ellis Lingard and Will Tate both being chosen in their places.
