Wests Tigers Head Coach Michael Maguire has finalised his side to take on the Parramatta Eels for their Round 6 clash today.

Kickoff for the match is at 4:00pm AEST from the brand new Bankwest Stadium as Wests Tigers look to build on last week's win over the Brisbane Broncos.

Maguire has confirmed an unchanged lineup for today's game with Robert Jennings clear to play after being forced off with a concussion in the Round 5 win.

Russell Packer starts in the front row alongside young tyro Alex Twal, while Josh Aloiai retains his spot at lock after an impressive start to the 2019 season.

After a Man of the Match performance in Round 5, Josh Reynolds remains in the number six jersey and will partner Luke Brooks in the halves for today's game.

For the Eels, winger Blake Ferguson (rib/nose) has been ruled out after picking up an injury last week with Josh Hoffman coming in to the side as his replacement.

Peni Terepo also starts at lock, with Tepai Moeroa dropping back to the bench.
