Brighouse Town host Bradford Park Avenue in a warm-up game on Saturday that will tempt floating locals and ground-hoppers alike.
Town boss Mark Brier is expecting a better Avenue squad than they sent last year.
He said: "We understand they are sending the full squad because they didn’t have a midweek game of any kind. Before last season it was a bit of a non-event because they sent their under-19s.
“This should be better, and I’m sure it will be a strong, physical and mental test for our players and theirs.
"It will be played in the right spirit in front of another half-decent crowd, much like last Saturday when Halifax Town came to us.”
