Leeds Rhinos team news as Liam Sutcliffe returns for Huddersfield clash

Liam Sutcliffe is in line to make his return to the Leeds Rhinos side after being named in Richard Agar's 21-man squad to face Huddersfield Giants.

Sutcliffe has missed the last three games with a knee injury, with his absence adding to the selection woe the Rhinos have endured throughout the season.

But he will return to the reckoning after replacing Richie Myler in the squad, who begins a two-match suspension for questioning the integrity of a match official in last week's defeat to Hull Kingston Rovers.

There is one other change, with youngster Corey Hall replacing Cameron Smith, who is set for several weeks on the sidelines with a hamstring injury.

Jack Walker (foot), Callum McLelland (groin), Harry Newman (leg break), Luke Gale (thumb), Rob Lui (quad), Tom Holroyd (leg fracture) and Zane Tetevano (suspended) all remain unavailable.

Both the Rhinos and the Giants head into the match with one win each this season, though Ian Watson's side have yet to win in the league.

The Rhinos have lost their last four games in all competition, with their one win coming in round one against Wakefield Trinity.

Huddersfield defeated Leigh Centurions in the Challenge Cup.

Leeds Rhinos' 21-man squad : T Briscoe, Hurrell, Handley, Oledzki, Leeming, Prior, Mellor, Martin, Dwyer, L Sutcliffe, Vuniyayawa, Thompson, A Sutcliffe, Walters, L Briscoe, Donaldson, O'Connor, Broadbent, Hall, Gannon, Eastmond.
