FAIRFORD Town host local rivals Highworth Town in the opening round of the Bluefin Sport Hellenic Challenge Cup this evening (7.45pm).

The two teams last met in the same competition in October 2015, with the Reds going through 3-2 on penalties after a 3-3 draw following extra-time.

Dan Drewett and Nathan Blackford both played for the Worthians in that tie, but could face their former club tonight after a summer switch to Cinder Lane.

Fairford go into the encounter unbeaten in nine games whilst Highworth are on the rise under new boss Jeff Roberts with a four-game unbeaten spell.

Parking at Cinder Lane is free with adult tickets £5, U16s free and concessions £2.

A full programme will be available, priced at £1 and the clubhouse will be open from 6.30pm.
