ENGAGE SUPER LEAGUE Venue: The Jungle Date: Sunday, 13 September Kick-off: 1530 BST Coverage: Commentary on BBC Radio Leeds FM & online; score updates on BBC Radio 5 Live & the BBC Sport website; highlights on the Super League Show
Castleford, who booked their play-off spot with a 48-0 win away to Harlequins RL last weekend, hope to restore back Richard Owen to the starting line-up. Joe Westerman, who scored a hat-trick in the triumph at the Stoop, is likely to resume his role at stand-off. Bottom club Celtic Crusaders will give a debut to 19-year-old winger Ashley Bateman who replaces Chris Beasley. Luke Dyer misses a return to his former club, but Mark Lennon and Jordan James will play in front of their old fans.
Castleford coach Terry Matterson: "Our home form has been a bit disappointing at times this year and we'd like to give our fans a strong finish to the regular season, as well as taking some good form into the play offs. "But we would be wrong to think it's just a case of turning up. Celtic have tried very hard this season and they'll want to come here and give a good account of themselves."
Castleford (from): Owen, Dixon, Shenton, Evans, Wainwright, Chase, Sherwin, Sargent, Huby, Ferres, Clayton, Westerman, Jones, Higgins, Feather, Boyle, Netherton, McGoldrick, Widders. Celtic Crusaders (from): Blackwood, Bateman, Flower, Tangata-Toa, Kear, Davies, Dudson, Chan, J. James, Mills, Withers, White, Bryant, Lennon, Smith, Budworth, Wardle, O'Hara, Tyrer.
