Team news: Catalans v Wakefield (Sat)

James Gordon

Out of form Catalans are boosted by the return of four players for the visit of Wakefield on Saturday.

Micky McIlorum, Tony Gigot, Matt Whitley and Kenny Edwards are back in Steve McNamara’s squad for the Dragons, who have lost five in a row since they beat Wakefield at Belle Vue in May.

Joe Arundel returns for Wakefield for the first time since Good Friday, along with Lee Kershaw. The pair replace Jack Croft and the unavailable Mason Caton-Brown.

Gordon’s Gamble: Lee Kershaw is 12/1 to score the first try on his return.

Catalans 19-man squad: Gigot, Broughton, Mead, Wiliame, Langi, Smith, Casty, McIlorum, Edwards, Garcia, Bousquet, Simon, Whitley, Da Costa, Albert, Maria, Romano, Kasiano, Tomkins.

Wakefield 19-man squad: Arundel, Brough, Crowther, England, Fifita, Gwaze, Hampshire, Hirst, Jones-Bishop, Kershaw, King, Kopczak, Lyne, Miller, Pauli, Randell, Tanginoa, Tupou, Wood.

Close one to call this, Catalans are 8/15 with home advantage, Wakefield 7/4 to breathe life in to their play-off bid
