Leeds Rhinos play host to Warrington Wolves in the first Super League semi-final on Friday.
The Rhinos are bidding to make just a second Super League Grand Final in the last eight years when hosting Wire, whose last Old Trafford appearance came in 2018.
The visitors occupied second place in the league for much of the first half of the season, but a run of four defeats in six ultimately saw them fall into third, behind Leeds on points difference. The Rhinos meanwhile looked good for a first League Leaders' Shield since 2015, only to be knocked off top spot by Wigan Warriors after falling to a 40-8 defeat at Headingley in the penultimate game of the season.
The Rhinos were dealt a blow with the news that Lachie Miller would miss the rest of the season with Ash Handley stepping in at full-back for the defeat to Hull FC last time out, but skipper Handley will also miss out on Friday with a back injury, giving coach Brad Arthur an even bigger headache.
Fergie McCormack or Chris Hankinson could be thrown in at full-back, though there'll be unwelcome reshuffling whatever route Arthur decides to go down.
Danny Levi remains out with Jack Bird joining him on the sidelines, though James McDonnell returns after a pectoral injury.
For Warrington, they name an unchanged 21-man squad with Jordy Crowther remaining sidelined.
