LEIGH LEOPARDS TEAM NEWS: MOYLAN LIKELY TO RETURN
Matt Moylan sat out last week’s win but the veteran should come back into the fold here while Aaron Pene and Edwin Ipape are also in contention to bolster Adrian Lam’s options.
21-MAN SQUAD: O’Brien, Hardaker, Leutele, Charnley, Moylan, Lam, Amone, Ipape, Mulhern, O’Donnell, Hughes, Asiata, Norman, Halton, Trout, Hanley, Nisbet, Brogan, Dwyer, McIntosh, Pene
ST. HELENS TEAM NEWS: MAKINSON AND WHITLEY NAMED
Saints will hope their injury woes are subsiding with the inclusion of Tommy Makinson and Matt Whitley in their 21-man squad but Konrad Hurrell is unlikely to feature again this season with the centre requiring neck surgery.
21-MAN SQUAD: Welsby, Makinson, Blake, Percival, Bennison, Lomax, Dodd, Clark, Lees, Mbye, Bell, Sironen, Paasi, Whitley, Delaney, Davies, Royle, Vaughan, Stephens, Cowen, Robertson
LEIGH LEOPARDS VS ST. HELENS PREDICTION
This is a game that Leigh Leopards simply cannot lose if they want to remain in contention for an unlikely spot in the top six. They have won their last two but this is a big step up in class for them as they take on St. Helens. The visitors have struggled recently with injuries decimating them and having lost their last four in succession, Leigh are the slight preference here having lost just once on home soil all season.
