Bradford Bulls are boosted by the return from injury of Olivier Elima and Gareth Raynor for Saturday's engage Super League clash at Salford City Reds.
Elima missed the defeat to Hull last time out with an ankle problem, while Raynor has been sidelined for several weeks with a damaged hamstring.
Kyle Briggs also earns a recall and could feature for the first time since February but there is no place for Shad Royston or Ian Sibbit.
Goal-kicking three-quarter Patrick Ah Van is an injury doubt but has nevertheless been named in the initial 19-man squad by Bulls coach Mick Potter.
"We know it's going to be tough because the Willows is not an easy place to go," said Bradford assistant coach Francis Cummins.
"They got a hiding last week and they will want to start strong so we know we have to play well."
Salford come into the match on the back of a heavy defeat against league leaders Castleford last time out.
The City Reds make just one alteration to their 19-man squad, young prop Jack Spencer making way for the return of wing Ashley Gibson, who has missed the last four matches.
Salford squad: Patten, Broughton, Henry, Nero, Anderson, Ratchford, Holdsworth, Cashmere, Godwin, Boyle, Neal, L. Adamson, Wild, Smith, Sneyd, Gibson, Sidlow, Paleaaesina, Jewitt
Bradford squad: Ainscough, Ah Van, Bateman, Briggs, Burgess, Diskin, Donaldson, Elima, Hargreaves, Herbert, Kearney, Kopczak, L'Estrange, Lynch, Olbison, Raynor, Sykes, Walker, Whitehead
