Toulouse Olympique vs Leeds Rhinos: 21-man squads, injury news, kick-off time & TV details

Toulouse Olympique host Leeds Rhinos at the Stade Ernest Wallon this Saturday evening.

The fixture had originally been arranged for a 5pm kick-off, but thanks to a heatwave in the south of France this weekend, kick-off has been pushed back two hours which will make it a late finish.

Toulouse go into this fixture on the back of a brilliant victory over Wakefield Trinity which lifted the French club to within two points of their basement dweller rivals.

Leeds, meanwhile, were able to overcome Castleford Tigers in a great result, 34-20.
