Preview: Castleford v Les Catalans (Round 14)

Castleford have the chance to make amends for their biggest humiliation of the season when Catalans Dragons visit The Jungle on Sunday.

The Tigers were branded ?embarrassing? and ?pathetic? by coach Terry Matterson after their 51-14 defeat in Carcassonne, where they conceded four tries in the last 11 minutes.

They have already enjoyed one win over the Dragons at home and can climb further away from relegation danger with a third successive win.

Their hopes are likely to be boosted by the return of prop forward Danny Sculthorpe, who broke a thumb in his side?s win over Wigan in March.

The Tigers lost their next six matches in the absence of the experienced Sculthorpe but he is set to make a timely comeback.

?He?s a quality player and he?s been really good for us,? admitted Matterson.
