Raiders squad named to face Widnes Vikings

Paul Crarey has made two changes to his 21-man squad in the lead up to the Raiders clash with Widnes Vikings: Jake Carter comes in for the injured Ryan Johnston, whilst Matt Costello is back from Salford Red Devils to bolster the ranks. Charlie Emslie misses the game due to his facial injury sustained during Thursday’s game against Leigh Centurions.

The opposition: Widnes Vikings

It has proved to be a difficult campaign so far for the Vikings, who remain without a permanent head coach since the departure of Simon Finnigan on April 26. They have won just one of their last nine matches.
