Cas Cup clash squad announced
Daryl Powell has named his 21-man squad for this Sunday’s Coral Challenge Cup Sixth Round match against Hull FC at the Totally Wicked Stadium.
Castleford’s Head Coach makes three changes from the team that was announced for Thursday night’s match against Warrington with Sosaia Feki, Jake Trueman and Cheyse Blair joining the squad, whilst Alex Foster and Junior Moors step out along with Gareth O’Brien, who is unable to feature due to being cup-tied with Toronto Wolfpack.
Feki could make his Tigers competitive debut after suffering a couple of injury setbacks, Trueman has missed Castleford’s last two matches following a back injury and Blair could feature in his first fixture since the season restarted in early August.
The Tigers will be looking to get back to winning ways and begin a run in the Challenge Cup following an agonisingly late defeat against Warrington on Thursday night.
Meanwhile, Hull FC are aiming to make it back-to-back wins after holding on for a victory over Wakefield Trinity.
