Gareth Widdop is in line to return for Warrington Wolves when they welcome St Helens in Super League on Thursday night.
The halfback has missed the past three matches with a glute injury but has been named by Daryl Powell in this week’s 21-man squad.
However, Josh Charnley and Danny Walker are both absent from the squad, alongside Josh Thewlis who suffered a knee injury in last week’s defeat at Catalans Dragons.
Ellis Robson returns to contention and there is also a place in the squad for young prop Luke Thomas, who could make his Warrington debut.
The Wolves remain without Jack Hughes (shoulder), James Harrison and Greg Minikin (both knee).
Kristian Woolf makes only one change to his Saints squad, with Daniel Hill replacing Jumah Sambou.
Regan Grace misses out again despite targeting this game for a comeback from his hamstring injury.
He remains on the sidelines along with Will Hopoate (hamstring), Lewis Dodd (Achilles) and Jon Bennison (face).
