Last Updated: 22/03/15 6:12pm
Widnes Vikings will attempt to halt a two-game losing streak when they host Hull KR at the Select Security Stadium on Sunday.
The Vikings fell to their first Super League home defeat of the season against St Helens last weekend and head coach Denis Betts has rang the changes for the visit of Hull KR.
Manase Manuokafoa, Declan Hulme, Phil Joseph, Jack Owens, Cameron Phelps and Lloyd White all come into Betts’ 19-man squad, with Patrick Ah Van, Eamon O'Carroll, Danny Craven and Chris Dean dropping out.
Hull KR travel across the M62 boosted by last weekend’s remarkable win over Catalans Dragons, where they scored 40 unanswered second-half points in a 50-20 victory.
Former Bradford second-rower James Donaldson has recovered from a dislocated thumb and returns to take the place of the suspended Mitch Allgood, while centre Darrell Goulding is also back in contention after sitting out the win over the Dragons.
Hull KR: Maurice Blair, John Boudebza, Greg Burke, Terry Campese, Ben Cockayne, Kieran Dixon, James Donaldson, Darrell Goulding, James Green, Graeme Horne, Albert Kelly, Kevin Larroyer, Shaun Lunt, Josh Mantellato, Tyrone McCarthy, Liam Salter, Ken Sio, Adam Walker, Kris Welham.
