Wakefield bring Kyle Bibb and Luke George into their 19-man squad to face Celtic Crusaders at Belle Vue on Sunday as they look to firm up their play-off place.
Bibb returns from a loan spell at Hull KR while George is back after an eye injury. They take the place of Cain Southernwood and Dale Morton.
John Kear has no fresh injury worries but has received a blow with the news that centre Tony Martin will not recover before the end of the season.
The sixth-placed Wilcats are currently two points clear of Warrington, Harlequins and Catalans Dragons and will expect to take full advantage of a home tie against rock-bottom Crusaders.
The visitors, meanwhile, are still without Damien Quinn due to his foot problem, although he hopes to be back in time to face Leeds next week.
Australian full-back Tony Duggan will also miss out again and there is worse news for loose forward Peter Lupton as he misses the remainder of the campaign.
Mark Dalle Cort, Jace Van Dijk, Josh Hannay and Chris Beasley are all back in contention for the Welsh side.
Wakefield squad: Blaymire, Atkins, Brough, Demetriou, Drew, Snitch, Wilkes, Grix, Obst , Stosic, Bibey, Henderson, Gleeson, Leo-Latu, Korkidas, Ferguson, Moore, George, Bibb.
Celtic Crusaders squad: Lennon, Dyer, Hannay, Dalle Cort, Tyrer, Blackwood, White, Smith, Van Dijk, O'Hara, Bryant, Chalk, Chan, J. James, Budworth, Flower, Tangata-Toa, Beasley, Davies.
