England forward Gareth Hock is in line to make his Widnes Vikings debut after recovering from close-season shoulder surgery, while full-back Shaun Briscoe and centre Cameron Phelps also return after sitting out last week’s opening win at London Broncos. Rhys Hanbury switches from full-back to scrum-half in place of the injured Danny Craven.

St Helens coach Nathan Brown retains the team that crashed to a 40-4 home defeat by Huddersfield Giants as they look to maintain their 100% Super League record against the Vikings.
