Heathens, who booked their passage to the Knockout Cup Final at the weekend, now look to continue the defence of their title (7.30pm).

The Fen Tigers are without Josh Bates (shoulder) while reserve Jack Kingston is unavailable.

Cradley are boosted by the return of Steve Worrall, Paul Starke and Matt Williamson after they missed the cup win at Coventry.

Team boss Will Pottinger said: "Mildenhall are missing a few riders. We need to take advantage of this and really push on.

"We could do with gaining as big a lead as possible for the second leg at West Row on Sunday. I'm sure the fans will be with us."

Fans who attended the abandoned meeting last week will be admitted for £5 adults and concessions with a readmission ticket (children free). Normal prices apply for those without readmission tickets.

Cradley: Steve Worrall, Nathan Greaves, Max Clegg, Tom Perry, Paul Starke, Matt Williamson, Danny Phillips.

Mildenhall: Joe Jacobs, Josh Bates R-R, Luke Chessell, Brendan Johnson, Dan Halsey, Michael Neale, Ellis Perks.
