St.Helens will take on Castleford Tigers in the Bedford Challenge Cup Fourth Round on Saturday, 14th March 2026, at The OneBore Stadium with kick-off scheduled for 6pm.
This marks the first Challenge Cup meeting between the Saints and Tigers since the 2021 Wembley Final, when St.Helens emerged victorious with a 12-26 win, clinching our first Challenge Cup trophy in 13 years.
Throughout the year, St Helens R.F.C. will be celebrating our 1996 team, that historic year which saw the Saints achieve an historic Double by winning both the inaugural Super League and the Challenge Cup. Thirty years later, fittingly, the Saints and Castleford will meet again in the Fourth Round, mirroring the 1996 Cup competition.
Paul Rowley’s men secured their place at this stage of the Cup with a professional performance against Workington Town, running out 2-98 victors up in West Cumbria. The Saints have won their last three league matches, including a hard-fought victory over Bradford last Saturday.
Ryan Carr’s Tigers team reached this stage of the knockout competition after defeating Doncaster in early February. Their league form has been mixed, with only one win in their last four matches, coming against Huddersfield two weeks ago.
The Fourth Round winners will advance to the Quarter Finals, bringing them closer to a spot in the Final at Wembley on Saturday 30th May.
