Team news: Castleford v Leeds (Fri)

James Gordon

Leeds will be looking to ease their relegation worries when they travel to Castleford on Friday night.

The Rhinos beat Catalans last weekend and are level on points with London and Hull KR at the bottom of the table.

Full-back Jack Walker is missing through injury and is replaced by Ashton Golding, while new signing Rhyse Martin is set to make his debut after arriving from Canterbury Bulldogs.

Castleford are without Jake Trueman and Tuoyo Egodo after both picked up concussion injuries in the win over London on Sunday.

Greg Eden and Wigan-bound Mitch Clark come in to the squad to replace them.

The two sides have a win each in previous meetings this season, with Leeds securing a dramatic Golden Point victory at Headingley before Castleford thumped them by 22 points in the second meeting, also at Headingley, in May.

Gordon’s Gamble: Rhyse Martin is 4/1 to mark his debut with a try anytime.

Castleford 19-man squad: Aston, Blair, Clare, Clark, Clarkson, Cook, Eden, Maher, Massey, Mata’utia, McMeeken, McShane, Millington, Milner, Minikin, Rankin, Sene-Lefao, Smith, Watts.

Leeds 19-man squad: Briscoe, Hurrell, Handley, Myler, Cuthbertson, Singleton, Merrin, Dwyer, Sutcliffe, Ferres, Oledzki, Golding, Smith, Donaldson, Newman, Seumanufagai, Lunt, Lui, Martin.

Castleford enter this one was favourites at 4/9, Leeds are 2/1 for a second successive win while a repeat of the golden point period of earlier in the season is 22/1
