The Isle of Man's national football team continue their Inter-League Cup warm-up this weekend in the north west of England.
The Reds will play Curzon Ashton and Salford City ahead of their opening cup game against Cumberland in a few weeks' time.
The match will be Steve Burns's first competitive tie as manager after taking over from Kevin Manning last year.
Although this weekend's opposition are completely unknown to many, the matches are seen as a valuable exercise.
