Celtic Crusaders make their final appearance at Brewery Field against Huddersfield Giants on Saturday.

The Crusaders have used the Bridgend venue during their maiden engage Super League campaign but are moving to Newport's Rodney Parade next season.

The Welsh outfit are eight points adrift at the foot of the table having won just three matches all season - their task has become even harder in recent weeks after six Australian squad members were deported for breaches of visa regulations.

Nevertheless, John Dixon's men will be looking to provide one last night to remember for the Brewery Field faithful and, to that end, are boosted by the inclusion of Lincoln Withers and Mark Lennon.

Both players have recovered from injury to be included in the Crusaders' initial 19-man squad, although Marshall Chalk is ruled out after undergoing knee surgery.

Huddersfield, meanwhile, are looking for an immediate response to their Carnegie Challenge Cup final defeat to Warrington last weekend.

Nathan Brown's men currently sit in fourth spot and have already qualified for the play-offs.

The Giants, however, must do without full-back Kevin Brown for the remainder of the season due to a knee injury, while skipper Brett Hodgson, centre Jamahl Lolesi and prop Darrell Griffin also miss the trip to Wales.

Celtic squad: Blackwood, Bateman, Flower, Beasley, Tangata-Toa, Kear, Davies, Dudson, Chan, J. James, Mills, Withers, White, Bryant, Lennon, Smith, Budworth, O'Hara, Tyrer

Huddersfield squad: Aspinwall, Whaturia, D. Hodgson, Fulton, Robinson, Crabtree, Faiumu, Raleigh, Wild, Finnigan, P. Jackson, Mason, Lawrence, Moore, Cudjoe, Lunt, J. Griffin, Larne, Sculthorpe
