Dom Manfredi returns as Wigan Warriors prepare for Hull FC rematch

Dom Manfredi could make his first appearance of the season after being named in Wigan Warriors' 21-man squad for the Challenge Cup quarter-final clash with Hull FC.

The winger has been named in Adrian Lam's squad for the contest after missing the entire season with a thumb injury.

But he's in line to play against the Black and Whites after Lam made just one change, with Manfredi replacing the suspended Tony Clubb.

Manfredi's return gives Lam a selection headache despite being without a string of key players in the backline.

But the form of Bevan French at wing, as well as Jake Bibby plus Liam Farrell and Willie Isa at centre, gives Lam plenty to ponder.

Meanwhile, there are three changes for Hull, with Josh Reynolds, Manu Ma'u and Connor Wynne replacing the suspended Jack Connor, Brad Fash and Scott Taylor.

Wigan 21-man squad: Bevan French, Dom Manfredi, Zak Hardaker, Brad Singleton, Sam Powell, Joe Bullock, Willie Isa, Liam Farrell, John Bateman, Oliver Partington, Morgan Smithies, Liam Byrne, Harry Smith, Ethan Havard, Jake Bibby, Mitch Clark, Joe Shorrocks, Sam Halsall, James McDonnell, Umyla Hanley, Jackson Hastings.

Hull FC 21-man squad: Carlos Tuimavave, Josh Griffin, Mahe Fonua, Josh Reynolds, Marc Sneyd, Danny Houghton, Chris Satae, Andre Savelio, Manu Ma’u, Ligi Sao, Jordan Johnstone, Joe Cator, Jordan Lane, Ben McNamara, Jack Brown, Adam Swift, Cameron Scott, Jude Ferreira, Mitieli Vulikijapani, Harvey Barron, Connor Wynne.
