Harlequins welcome back Tony Chubb as they bid for a third victory of the season against the City Reds.

The Young England international returns from a two-match ban while Lamont Bryan retains his place after impressing during last week's defeat to Bradford.

Ryan Esders misses out this time while Danny Orr is sidelined by a thigh injury, while Danny Ward faces a fitness test after taking a knock last week.

Winger Jon Wells insists the side can still make the play-offs despite losing seven of their last eight games.

"If we get all the things together; the physical side of things, the mental side and the preparation, there is no reason why we can't win the next four fixtures," he said.

"But for me the beauty of sport is that no matter how well or how poorly you are going, you only have to wait seven days for another shot. That's the tonic for all the headaches.

"I'm quietly confident we will be going out and giving our all on Saturday."

Salford coach Shaun McRae must decide whether to recall Richie Myler after controversially leaving him out of the matchday squad last week.

He chose to rest the young stand-off in favour of Stefan Ratchford but the City Reds went down 18-16 to last minute score.

Prop Craig Stapleton serves a one-match ban for his sending off against Catalans, meaning a possible opportunity for youngster Jason Walton.

Harlequins RL squad: Clubb, Dorn, Gafa, Gale, Golden, Haggerty, Heckenberg, Kaye, Mbu, McCarthy-Scarsbrook, Melling, O'Callaghan, Purdham, Randall, Sharp, Ward, Wells, Williamson, Bryan.

Salford squad: Wilshere, Henry, Littler, Walton, McGilvray, Smith, Ratchford, Cashmere, Alker, Spencer, Adamson, Sidlow, Swain, Paul, Sibbit, Leuluai, Nash, Fitzpatrick, Myler.
