It's derby day once again this Friday as the old rivals from East and West do battle at Armadale both looking for a result to put a different glean on seasons where more would have been hoped for.
Not making the playoffs for a crack at defending their 2023 league title is the fate that befalls the visiting Tigers with a defeat whereas for the home Stellar Monarchs it is just about pride and making sure a bottom place finish is avoided.
With victory required on both sides of the pits each side comes in with replacements in place with Dan and Joe Thompson stepping into the Blue and Gold for Justin Sedgmen and Kye Thomson.
Ben Barker and Max Perry deputising for Leon Flint and Jason Garrad for the Tigers.
Elsewhere the teams are as expected with some enthralling looking match-ups throughout, any race featuring Josh Pickering and Chris Harris has the chance to be absolutely box office while fellow Tigers heat leader Anders Rowe takes some stopping if he hits the front, the young Englishman was unbeaten when the first running of this fixture had to be called off.
Matic Ivacic will be a key man for the Tigers as he now drops to reserve so it will be up to Connor Coles and Max James to nullify the threat.
With a BSN Series semi final second leg still to come this may or may not be the last time the home fans get the chance to see this year's Monarchs so a big crowd cheering on the boys will be a boost to all.
Tapes-up at 19.30 as the Scottish squads take to the shale one last time in 2024.

The final home Championship match of the season for the Stellar Monarchs was described as a "Must Win" fixture for the team, and win they did with a very good performance, defeating Glasgow 49-41, just missing the aggregate bonus but handing a golden opportunity to Workington to make the Playoffs if they win their home match tomorrow.

The Stellar Monarchs face Scottish rivals Glasgow this Friday evening in a match which means a lot to both teams. Monarchs have the limited but important ambition of getting off the foot of the table while Tigers hope to keep their Playoff ambitions alive prior to a Sunday clash with Oxford in which they will probably need to take three points – as long a they have secured three at Armadale.
