Wests Tigers Coach Michael Maguire has updated his 19-man squad to take on the Penrith Panthers in their Round 13 clash.

Kickoff is at 7:55pm AEST from Leichhardt Oval as Wests Tigers look to build on their last-start win over the St. George-Illawarra Dragons in Round 12.

Jake Simpkin and Tuki Simpkins have both dropped out of the 19-man squad and will instead feature for the club's Knock-On Effect NSW Cup side, Western Suburbs, on Saturday as they face off in their top-of-the-table clash against Penrith.

Michael Chee Kam and Kiah Cooper remain in the squad as reserves, with a final 18-man side to be confirmed one hour prior to kickoff (6:55pm, Friday).

Friday's game will mark Luke Garner's 50th NRL game for the club while Balmain junior Alex Seyfarth will play his first NRL game at Leichhardt Oval after being named to start at lock in place of Joe Ofahengaue (representative duties).
