Raiders will look to bounce back from Saturday's frustrating exit from the UHL Challenge Cup.

After a tough 4-0 defeat to Hereford Pegasus, tomorrow's game becomes even more crucial as Raiders chase their last chance at cup glory this season.

Manager Jordan Lewis, ahead of Longlevans: “Saturday's performance has got to be put behind us with hunger and determination to show we are a hell of a lot better than what we showed the other day”.

“ I will be bang up for it and more determined than ever to ensure we get into the final like we did last year.”

Having won 3 out of 3 at home in the Floodlit cup, the lads will be looking to go one further as we return home and on the grass pitch.

“We haven't played on our grass pitch for a little bit, but we know the pitch well. It's going to be important that we use that to our advantage when we can.

“We have got to get the support we have behind us, give us something to get up for and get involved with the fans to give them something to cheer about.

Raiders come into the game with just one defeat in the last 8 games at the DOADC stadium, winning all other 7 games in 2026.

Big boost for Raiders, with captain Jordan Murphy back after missing Saturday and Jake Donnelley returning after a 3-game suspension. Two key players back in the side.

There also could be a surprise inclusion in tomorrow's game as the gaffer hints, “we’ve hopefully got a returning forward that we’ve not seen in a while”.

A win tomorrow would set us up with a final against either Malmesbury Victoria or Hungerford Town Reserves.
