Wests Tigers Head Coach Ivan Cleary has finalised his side to take on the South Sydney Rabbitohs for their Round 25 clash at ANZ Stadium tonight.

Kickoff for the match is at 7:50pm AEST with live coverage via Channel 9 and FOX League.

Looking to finish the season with a winning record for the first time since 2011, Cleary has confirmed one late change with Josh Aloiai moving to the starting side at prop in place of Matt Eisenhuth.

Jacob Liddle joins the bench in place of Robbie Rochow alongside Alex Twal and Sauaso Sue, who will play his final game in Wests Tigers colours tonight before linking up with the Bulldogs in 2019.

Kevin Naiqama will also be farewelled by Wests Tigers, joining St. Helens in 2019.

South Sydney have confirmed an unchanged lineup, with Robert Jennings returning from injury on the wing in place of Braidon Burns while Dean Britt also joins the bench in place of Junior Tatola.
