Danny Jones (arm) is a major doubt for Keighley Cougars in their Northern Rail Cup game at Barrow Raiders on Sunday.
Daley Williams (back) is also rated “extremely doubtful” by Keighley coach Barry Eaton.
“It’s certainly a different proposition for us than last week,” said Eaton, whose side beat Workington 38-10 in their latest cup fixture.
Eaton added: “We’ve had a taste of Championship opposition when we played Whitehaven but we’ve not travelled to a Championship side yet.
“We’ve won three out of three so far and barring a mathematical miracle I think we’ve just about qualified for the next stages. It should be a good game.” Raiders coach Steve McCormack knows his team are set for a fierce battle.
McCormack said: “Any team that has won their last nine games, like Keighley have, suggests they are an outstanding team with a winning habit.”
