ALTY play their second friendly of the 2024/25 pre-season schedule on Saturday, facing off against Lancaster City at Giant Axe (kick-off 2pm).

The Robins began their match prep for the upcoming season with a 1-0 win over Colne last week, before heading into week two of summer training.

Lancaster City opened their friendly fixtures last Friday, losing narrowly 2-1 against Vanarama National League side AFC Fylde.

Led by manager Chris Willcock, City are looking to build on a positive 2023/24 campaign, where the Dolly Blues narrowly missed out on finishing in a play-off spot in the NPL Premier Division.
