The Reds host the Seagulls at St Helens Stadium on Sunday in a 12.15pm BST kick-off as they aim to reach the showpiece at Wembley.
At his pre-match press conference on Friday, head coach Gareth Taylor was quizzed on the availability of his players for the fixture.
"We're pretty much as we were before, with the exception of Cornelia Kapocs returning," he told reporters.
"She's been in training today so that's important that we have got her back because I think up until last weekend she was ever-present in the team and played a high amount of minutes and contributed really well. It's good to have her back.
"Others would be similar [as before]. Martha Thomas is still out and Gemma Bonner - these guys are still recovering. Lucy Parry too but, unfortunately, it's going to be a little bit beyond them.
"Sam Kerr is continuing training with the team but is still a small while away from being back in contention."
Marie Höbinger, Sophie Roman Haug and Sofie Lundgaard all remain long-term absentees for the Reds.
