Challenge Cup draw: Who Leeds Rhinos, Castleford Tigers, Wakefield Trinity and Featherstone Rovers will face in round six

Leeds Rhinos have been drawn at home to neighbours Castleford Tigers .

Wakefield Trinity, who have not reached the final since 1979, face successive visits to HJ Stadium after being drawn away against Warrington Wolves.

Featherstone Rovers face a tough trip to 2021 league leaders and Grand Final runners-up Catalans Dragons.

The derby between Leeds and Castleford will be the sides’ fifth Cup meeting of the summer era and first in the competition since the 2014 final at Wembley, which was won by Leeds.

Tigers won 15-12 at Headingley in 1998 and Rhinos gained revenge with a 42-12 success at the Jungle three years later. The 2011 semi-final, at Doncaster, went to golden point extra-time before a Kevin Sinfield penalty goal sent Rhinos through to the final.

Both coaches have Wembley success on their cv.

Lee Radford, the Tigers boss, guided Hull FC to successive Cup final triumphs in 2016 and 2017, while Leeds’ Richard Agar was in charge when they last lifted the trophy, two years ago.

Wakefield are at Warrington for a Channel 4-televised Betfred Super League showdown on Saturday and will return there for the Challenge Cup the following week.

Rovers’ tie in France will be another clash between coaches who have won the trophy in the past.

Rovers’ Brian McDermott was at the helm of Leeds when they recorded back-to-back Cup triumphs in 2014 and 2014 and Steve McNamara steered Catalans to the trophy in 2018.

Another all-Yorkshire tie will see Hull visit Championship side Sheffield Eagles, while Huddersfield Giants were drawn away to second tier Barrow Raiders.

Holders St Helens will travel to Cumbria to face Whitehaven and Wigan Warriors take on Salford Red Devils in an all-Super League tie.

The full draw is: Catalans Dragons v Featherstone Rovers, Whitehaven v St Helens, Warrington Wolves v Wakefield Trinity, Hull KR v Bradford Bulls or Leigh Centurions, Wigan Warriors v Salford Red Devils, Leeds Rhinos v Castleford Tigers, Sheffield Eagles v Hull FC, Barrow Raiders v Huddersfield Giants.
