Midweek Betfred Super League action awaits at The Mobile Rocket Stadium, with Castleford looking to get back to winning ways following last Thursday night’s defeat to Hull FC 12-30 at The Mend-A-Hose Jungle.

Castleford’s Head Coach makes four changes to the squad that was declared for the last round with Niall Evalds, Daniel Smith, Gareth O’Brien, and Jason Qareqare available for selection, whilst Adam Milner, James Clare, Lewis Bienek, and Brad Graham step out.

It marks the first time Tigers Academy product Qareqare has been named in the 21-man squad, after being called up late last week for his top-flight and senior Castleford debut, which saw him score inside the first minute of the match.

The Tigers will be looking to keep up their impressive recent record against Wakefield Trinity and take it to fifteen straight victories over the local derby rivals. Castleford supporters can watch live on Sky Sports Arena, with coverage starting at 7pm.
