Douglas Rugby Club head to Cheshire this weekend, playing their third away game in a row.
They face Northwich as the race for the play-offs heats up in Regional 2 North West.
When the sides faced earlier in the year at Port-e-Chee, Douglas ran out the winners 30-21.
However, they have experienced a tricky start to 2026, winning just one of their three league games since the calendar flipped over.
As for the squad, with Liam Kirkpatrick joining Blake Snell and Ethan Kermode in the physio room, Harry Cartwright moves to number 8 and Percy Hampton comes into the second row.
In the backs there is just one change, with Josh Duncan and Matty Wood switching positions.
