The Bucks
The Bucks go into this game following the 1-1 draw against Boston United in the first game week of the season.

Following the victory manager Craig Elliott said:
"It was disappointing to concede so late on and we deserved to win.
But I'm quite happy to get the first point of the season. I can't do anything but praise the players against Boston, who are effectively full time.
We've got several key squad members out with injuries and fingers crossed we can get some of them back in time for our next game."
