Leeds Rhinos and Catalans Dragons have named their sides for this evening’s Super League meeting in Perpignan.
The game is the third and final fixture of a Super Saturday, with Leigh Leopards defeating Castleford Tigers earlier this afternoon. Wakefield Trinity and Hull KR are currently tied at 6-6 at the time of writing.
Brad Arthur’s side have failed to score at the Stade Gilbert Brutus on their last three visits, something they will hope to break this evening.
Catalans come into this game on the back of a drubbing to French rivals Toulouse at Magic Weekend. The reports are that Dragons boss John Cartwright has signed a new deal at the club, so he will want to celebrate that new deal with a victory tonight.
