Highest-placed Vikings B face Valkyrs D
There are eight games in the Bridgewaters Manx Plate this weekend with mixed hockey league action outside of the top tier taking a back seat.
Saracens Sabres and Bacchas C meet in an all-Pwc Mixed Division One tie at Castle Rushen, whilst the lowest placed side in the competition, Saracens Sharks, take on Division Two leaders Ramsey Ravens.
An inter-club derby on Saturday sees Valkyrs B as strong favourites for their clash with Valkyrs C.
In the days late push-backs, fourth tier Castletown Southerners host Harlequins A - who sit 13 league positions above them - whilst Vikings C play Bacchas D.
