Castleford Tigers head to the Warrington Wolves hoping for a much-improved display than the one which saw them beaten 26-16 by the Salford Red Devils at the Jungle last Friday night.
The Tigers scored three tries – same as their opponents – but it was Salford halfback Marc Sneyd who ran the show, registering 14 points and dominating the game throughout.
Meanwhile, Warrington just about scraped a 22-20 win over 12-man Leeds Rhinos with Connor Wrench’s try late on securing the victory.
21-man squads
Warrington Wolves will be without Daryl Clark following his concussion in Wire’s win over Leeds, but Toby King will return. Oliver Holmes has also been banned for a game, but the club are appealing.
