Elsewhere Rathfriland Rangers play Newry City AFC in the first round of the Mid Ulster Cup at Iveagh Park.

The newly reformed Newry City AFC have relaunched themselves in the Intermediate B section of the Mid Ulster League and despite a 1-0 cup defeat at the weekend have had a decent start to the season so far.

After their 1 - 1 draw on Saturday Rathfriland will be looking to progress in this local cup competition, which can see draws against Irish League clubs at relatively early stages.

Kick off in that game is at 1.30pm.
