The Knights will welcome Sheffield Eagles to the LNER Community Stadium on Sunday (3pm) as a part of the double-header with York Valkyrie.
Applegarth has named just the one change to his team, which is forced through an injury to Scott Galeano.
The winger is absent after suffering a dead leg in the 28-20 victory over Bradford Bulls just shy of two weeks ago.
Returning to the squad is Ben Jones-Bishop, who was cup-tied for the AB Sundecks 1895 Cup semi-final against Bradford.
YORK KNIGHTS: 2. Brown, 3. Buchanan, 4. Law, 6. Hingano, 7. Harris, 8. Martin, 9. McShane, 10. Santi, 11. Dee, 12. Bailey, 13. Thompson, 16. Gannon, 17. Ta’ai, 19. Cook, 20. Field, 21. Fitzsimmons, 22. O’Neill, 24. Reynolds, 31. Hudson, 34. Jones-Bishop, 36. Mata’afa
