Racing Guantanamo will go into the first match of the B-Liga under a shroud of injuries, shedding doubt on whether the Mighty Orange can possibly win against their fierce rivals, Pearl Coast Pirates.
Captain Andy Smyth has been ruled out with a back injury, while influential midfielder Tim Gray is again out with a calf injury. Defender Ryan Platten is doubtful, with the Northern Irishman still struggling with a knee injury, and marquee man Joe Tighe is also out with the flu.
Kath Dabrowska is also away on international duty, while doubts also remain over the availability of young guns Kane Fitzpatrick and Joel Hamling.
There are however some postitives for the Mighty Orange, with goalkeeper Andy Chapman back in the squad as well as Trinidadian Terry Ragoonanan.
The Tim Gray recruitment machine has also been in action this week, with reports that former Fremantle Docker Tony Delaney, who has played in a couple of games before for Guantanamo, has signed a season-long contract with the club.
The match kicks off at 6pm tomorrow night under lights at Father McMahon Field.
