The Black & Whites take on Danny McGuire’s side in Joe Westerman’s testimonial fixture, in what will be John Cartwright’s first match in charge of the Airlie Birds.

Six of the Black & Whites new recruits are set to feature, including Jordan Rapana, Zak Hardaker, Aidan Sezer and John Asiata.

Cartwright has included several members of his Elite Talent Group as he looks to give game time to as many members of his squad as possible ahead of next week’s first competitive fixture of the season against York Acorn in the Betfred Challenge Cup Third Round.

Oliver Holmes, Yusuf Aydin (suspension), Davy Litten (knee), Jack Charles (ankle), Matty Laidlaw (knee) and Nick Staveley (ACL) are unavailable for selection.
