Saints squad named for Cup clash against Leeds

St.Helens Head Coach Paul Wellens has confirmed his 21-squad list for this Friday's Betfred Challenge Cup fixture against Leeds Rhinos!

St.Helens First Team 21-man squad announcement is sponsored by St Helens Flooring.

The Saints will host the Rhinos in the Fourth Round of rugby league’s oldest knockout competition at the Totally Wicked Stadium, with kick-off scheduled for 8pm. Two of our sport’s biggest clubs collide for a second year in a row at this stage of the Challenge Cup, with 16 teams left fighting it out to reach Wembley Stadium, go for glory in the hope of lifting the prestigious trophy.

It will be just the 22nd time that St.Helens and Leeds have met in this historic competition and the head to head stats read as honours even; both clubs hold 11 wins. The first time Saints and Leeds met in the Cup was back in 1911 and the two sides have faced off at the showpiece event, the Final itself, in 1972 and 1978 with the Red V winning the ’72 Challenge Cup 13 points to 16 at Wembley.

Heading into this match on the back of Round 4 in Betfred Super League 2025, the Red V and the Rhinos will be looking to shake off losses. Wellens’ men lost out last Friday night to Hull KR, ending the perfect start to this new season, whilst Brad Arthur’s Rhinos suffered a defeat to Catalans 11-0 over in France.

Last season, the Red V secured three victories over the West Yorkshire side; including twice in the league home and away, meaning that the Saints are currently on a five-match winning run against the Rhinos. The motivation for St.Helens on Friday is to keep that run rolling and reach the Quarter Finals.
