Vodafone Fiji Bati players Apisai Koroisau and Sunia Turuva will line up for the Wests Tigers as they look to rebound from a one-point loss to the Broncos last weekend.

Coach Benji Marshall has called for a quick response from his side in front of their home fans as they take on the Canberra Raiders tonight.

Jarome Luai is set to continue his comeback in his second game back from a knee injury and will look to develop his partnership with halfback Adam Doueihi.

Koroisau has been one of the form players across the opening seven rounds of the season and has another chance to press his claims for a NSW Origin recall.

The Wests Tigers will be without Heamasi Makasini after he suffered a foot injury in last week’s tight loss.

The youngster’s absence has triggered a backline reshuffle, with Starford To'a set for his first NRL appearance of the season on the wing, while Luke Laulilii also comes into the side in the centres.

Meanwhile, Canberra will be without Hudson Young and Josh Papalii, while Simi Sasagi is out with a hamstring injury.

The Wests Tigers will face the Raiders at 9.50 tonight.

In other matches, the Cowboys will meet the Sharks at 8pm tomorrow, the Broncos will host the Bulldogs at 10pm, the Dragons will take on the Roosters at 6pm Saturday, the Warriors will face the Dolphins at 8.05pm, and the Storm will meet the Rabbitohs at 10.10pm.
