Knights: Centre Dane Gagai is set for his 300th NRL game and will line up in the backline alongside 20-year-old debutant Fletcher Hunt after Greg Marzhew was ruled out with a knee injury. Leo Thompson will also miss Friday's clash after a head knock, with Tyson Frizell shifting to the front row as a result. The reshuffle has seen Adam Elliott added to the starting side and Thomas Cant come on to the bench. Jack Hetherington has been listed as 18th man in his bid to return from a shoulder injury.

Eels: Zac Lomax is set to make his return from a foot injury that has sidelined him since Round 5. The winger will have one game to play his way into a NSW State of Origin jumper. Lomax's return is a straight swap with Bailey Simonsson who picked up a foot injury last weekend. Coach Jason Ryles has made one change to his forward pack, with back-rower Matt Doorey added to the starting side at the expense of Charlie Guymer, who has not been named in the squad. Toni Mataele is the new man on the bench and is in line for his NRL debut.
