Last updated:

Eels: One minor change in Saturday's team update, with Jack de Belin dropping out of the squad. The former Dragon is replaced in the 19 by Charlie Guymer and Brian Kelly remains the 20th man. J'maine Hopgood is set to step straight back into the starting side in his return from suspension, prompting a minor reshuffle with Jack Williams shifting to lock. Eels winger Josh Addo-Carr has scored eight tries in his last four games at CommBank Stadium, while Parramatta have won their past four games against the Dragons at the venue. 

Dragons: No changes in Saturday's 24-hour team update, with Lyhkan King-Togia remaining in the extended squad. Jacob Liddle is on track to make his return from a hamstring injury and will form a one-two punch with starting hooker Damien Cook. The co-captain left the field late in last week's loss to Melbourne but passed his HIA and is set to play on Sunday. Also cleared to line up are halves Kyle Flanagan and Daniel Atkinson, who have avoided serious ankle injuries.

Last updated:

Cowboys: One change to the interchange in Saturday's 24-hour update, with Matthew Lodge coming into the six-man bench in place of Harrison Graham. Inspirational skipper Reuben Cotter is straight back into the starting side after missing last week's loss to the Tigers due to family reasons. Cotter's return will see Kai O'Donnell shift to the bench and Matt Lodge to the reserves. Zac Laybutt is also in the mix for his first game of the season after serving a suspension picked up in the Pre-Season Challenge.

Titans: Jayden Campbell returns from a hamstring injury in a major boost for new coach Josh Hannay. The playmaker was named on the six-man bench on Tuesday but the coach confirmed on Saturday that Campbell would start and Lachlan Ilias would move to the bench. No changes in Saturday's team update, with Josh Patston remaining in the extended squad as 20th man.
