Bradford coach Mick Potter can call on the services of utility back Brett Kearney for the first time since April as the Bulls take on St Helens.
Kearney suffered a broken hand against Leeds nearly two months ago but is now fully recovered and is expected to take his place in the starting line-up.
Gareth Raynor has completed his suspension while Ian Sibbitt has recovered from the back injury that forced him out of the victory at Harlequins.
Bryn Hargreaves, Danny Addy and Kyle Briggs drop out of the initial 19-man squad.
Saints boss Royce Simmons has six players on International Origin duty on Friday night so won't know where he stands until the weekend.
All six have been included in the squad as has James Roby, despite suffering a fractured eye socket that has ruled him out of the Origin match.
Full-back Paul Wellens is struggling with a dead leg but he too could play on Sunday, while back-rower Chris Flannery also has a niggle but is expected to play.
Prop Josh Perry is included after serving a suspension.
Bradford squad: Ah Van, Burgess, Crookes, Diskin, Donaldson, Elima, Herbert, Jeffries, Kearney, Kopczak, Langley, L'Estrange, Lynch, Olbison, Platt, Raynor, Royston, Sibbit, Whitehead.
St Helens squad: Wellens, Shenton, Soliola, Meli, Eastmond, Perry, Roby, Graham, Puletua, Wilkin, Flannery, Moore, McCarthy-Scarsbrook, Dixon, Lomax, Magennis, Forster, Gaskell, Makinson.
