    Castleford v St Helens (15:30 GMT)

    It's fair to say the Super League table hasn't really settled down yet, with Catalans Dragons having only played four games, while leaders Wigan have played seven.

    Castleford can go level on points with Warriors at the top with victory this afternoon.

    Standing in their way are a St Helens side who were magnificent in winning the title last season but who have struggled to hit the same heights so far this term under new coach Kristian Woolf, winning three and losing two of their opening five games.
