Huddersfield skipper Chris Thorman is back in the side after missing three games with a leg injury as the Giants bid to avenge last week's 42-22 Challenge Cup defeat.

Thorman takes over from Rod Jensen at full-back, who is jettisoned from the squad altogether following his nightmare in the Cup.

Leroy Cujdoe and Danny Kirmond are also added to coach Jon Sharp's squad, but Jamahl Lolesi is still suspended.

Hull KR are without second rower Ben Galea, who is facing a month on the sidelines with a knee injury.

Prop Makali Aizue has recovered from calf trouble and Rhys Lovegrove and youngster Liam Watts are also named in coach Justin Morgan's 19-man squad.

Huddersfield Giants squad: Thorman, Aspinwall, Elford, Whaturia, Brown, Robinson, Crabtree, Skandalis, Raleigh, Jones, Jackson, Mason, Snitch, Griffin, Hudson, Hemingway, Cudjoe, Lawrence, Kirmond.

Hull Kingston Rovers squad: Cooke, Briscoe, Fox, Walker, J. Webster, Fitzhenry, Gene, Watts, Cockayne, Crossman, Chester, Vella, Fisher, Lovegrove, Aizue, K. Netherton, Newton, Murrell, Mills.
