The 26-year-old Great Britain star became a doubt after sustaining a dead leg in Saints' 26-12 win over Leeds at Headingley on Friday.

Pryce, who has been in superb form for his club this year, is thought to be a certainty to be named in England coach Tony Smith's 19-man squad but he must first pass a medical.

"I've got a bit of swelling around my knee and leg but hopefully I'll be okay," he said.

"I've been at home all weekend icing it up and it's feeling 10 times better. Another 48 hours and it should be okay. I'm quite confident."

Pryce, who is vying with Leeds' Danny McGuire for the England number six jersey, sustained the injury in the early stages of Friday's table-topping showdown with the Rhinos but stayed on the field until 10 minutes from the end.

"I got a dead leg in the first 15 minutes and when I sat down at half-time it seized up and became stiff," he said.

"I went back out and stayed on as long as possible before coming off when the game was won."
