Castleford Tigers will take on St Helens on Saturday, 17th July at 3pm at Wembley Stadium, live on BBC One and the winning team will get to take home the prestigious Challenge Cup trophy.

The Fords Head Coach names a strong squad with twelve changes from the last squad declaration from the match against Salford just four days ago. With Niall Evalds, Derrell Olpherts, Peter Mata’utia, Jake Trueman, Paul McShane, Adam Milner, Nathan Massey, George Griffin, Daniel Smith, Suaia Matagi, Jordan Turner and Gareth O’Brien available for selection.

Tigers & Saints have yet to face off in 2021, but in 2020 the two clubs shared a victory each – both matches being thrilling encounters.

With the Cup on the line, Saturday’s Final promises to be another enthralling chapter in the two team’s history.
