Adam Milner is in line to make his Castleford debut for the visit of Huddersfield on Sunday.
The 18-year-old hooker is an England Academy international.
Centre James Evans, who has missed the last five games with a stomach muscle problem, is named for the first time since May 16 and Ryan Clayton is also in the frame after missing out recently following a facial injury.
Joe Arundel (knee) faces a late test and a similar injury rules out Liam Higgins, while the on-loan Kyle Wood is ineligible to play against his parent club.
The tenth-placed Tigers are eyeing a late-season surge into a play-off spot and come into this game on the back of some decent recent results.
Coach Terry Matterson told the club's website: "They are pushing hard for the top four and we need to keep our own momentum for the top-eight push, so I'm expecting a good contest and we are confident that if we can build upon the good work of recent weeks, we can take the points.
England prop Eorl Crabtree returns to the Huddersfield squad but there is no place for fellow forward Stephen Wild, while Paul Whatuira has returned to Australia.
Winger David Hodgson needs one try to set a new club record for the most in a Super League season.
Castleford (from): Dixon, Shenton, Evans, Wainwright, Chase, Sargent, Hudson, Huby, Ferres, Snitch, Westerman, Jones, Jackson, Clayton, Thompson, McGoldrick, Widders, Milner, Arundel.
Huddersfield (from): B. Hodgson, Cudjoe, Lolesi, D. Hodgson, Brown, Robinson, Crabtree, Lunt, Mason, Gilmour, Finnigan, D. Griffin, Drew, Lawrence, Faiumu, Grix, Patrick, Horne, Brough.
