Bradford Salem, who are second in Yorkshire Division One, expect to have their hands full on Saturday in their derby at fifth-placed Skipton.

“They have beaten Glossop 99-0 and Stockton 59-0 in recent weeks so we are preparing for a real test,” said Salem’s match secretary Neil Klenk.

The visitors’ only decision team-wise is whether to start with Phil Deer or Joe Simpson on the wing, the unlucky individual dropping to the bench.

Bradford Salem (at Skipton): R Langhorn; C Savva, K Whata, C Bourne, P Deer or J Simpson; J Robinson, I Woodwiss; C Buxton, S Fields, D Luxton, D Pearson, B Scarbrough, R Bourne, K Falwasser, S Cowman. Replacements; Deer or Simpson, J Morrell, D Wyness.
