Huddersfield v Leeds: 21-man squads, injury update and TV details

Huddersfield and Leeds have both announced their 21-man squads for Sunday afternoon’s round five fixture at the John Smith’s Stadium (KO 3:00pm).

Neither side has started the season how they’d have liked, each notching just one win from their first five games in all competitions.

The Giants are arguably the more in-form side, however, with their 36-18 Challenge Cup victory over Leigh coming more recently than Leeds’28-22 win against Wakefield, with the Rhinos losing their last four.

The game will be available to watch for free for season ticket holders via the Our League app.

Huddersfield Giants

There’s two big returnees for the Giants with Joe Greenwood and Ricky Leutele coming back from suspension and a broken hand respectively. They replace Jake Wardle and Louis Senior.
