Preview
Harlequins RL will give Danny Ward a fitness test after suffering a knock last week but David Howell (eye socket) has been ruled out for the season. He joins Karl Temata (knee), Danny Orr (quad) and Chad Robinson (knee) on the sidelines but Tony Clubb is back from suspension.
Salford Reds coach Shaun McRae must consider whether to recall scrum-half Richie Myler after controversially dropping him last week. Prop Craig Stapleton serves a one-match ban for his sending off against Catalans, meaning a possible opportunity for youngster Jason Walton.
