As expected, there is still no Greg Inglis but stand-off Widdop and prop Cooper are expected to go straight back into the starting side.
Skipper Jack Hughes missed Sunday's Challenge Cup win over Swinton Lions despite being named in the 21-man squad but he too is set to play at the KCOM Stadium.
Winger Lineham starts a three-match suspension and if he passes concussion protocols, Matty Ashton looks set to replace him on the left wing.
