Kick off on Saturday is a 6pm, gates open 5pm. Get your tickets here.

Matchday squad:

Ben Wilkinson, Ryan Burns, Karl Clark, Jacob Crook, Phil Kelly, Alex Maitland, Eoghain Sherrard, Tiernan Garvey, Ronan McDonnell, Kyle Watson, Ste Whitley, Michael Williams, Tom Creer, Furo Davies, Sean Doyle, Frank Jones
