Preview
Hull FC bring in Craig Hall as a third-choice full-back in the absence of Motu Tony and Todd Byrne, who injured a knee in Saturday’s win at Celtic Crusaders, while loose forward Danny Washbrook is out with a hamstring strain and his place on the bench is likely to go to Tommy Lee.
Catalans Dragons have lost forwards Jamal Fakir to suspension and Dane Carlaw to injury but hooker Casey McGuire is set to return after missing the win at Warrington Wolves with a rib injury and Julien Touxagas, Florian Quintilla and Vincent Duport come into contention.
