St Helens and Catalans Dragons have confirmed their squads for tonight’s Challenge Cup quarter-final with both Alex Walmsley and George Delaney returning, but no Jonny Lomax.
Saints are flying high after their win over Wigan Warriors but visitors Catalans also earned a derby day win last week, beating Toulouse at home.
Les Dracs are looking to make the semi-finals for the second successive year whilst St Helens are aiming to reach the final four for the first time since 2023.
Paul Rowley called on fans to help replicate an atmosphere similar to last week with St Helens set to need all the help they can get given their persistent injury issues, though there are returnees this week.
Both clubs have confirmed their matchday squads ahead of tonight’s game at the Brewdog Stadium, available to watch live on Super League+.
