In Rugby, Douglas will be looking to maintain a promising start to the new season today (Saturday).
They are fifth in South Lancashire and Cheshire Division Two, but have a game in hand on the teams above them, and a win in that match would put them top.
It's an even stronger position, as the victories have come on the road, with this afternoon's match against Marple the first fixture of the campaign at Port-e-Chee.
The other Manx sides at this level have won one and lost one.
Ramsey play their first game away from the Island at in-form Crewe and Nantwich today, while Vagabonds have their first league game at Ballafletcher, with Oswestry the visitors.
