Perks is backed up by Alfie Bowtell who has been in a rich vein of form recently and Henry Atkins along with Richard Andrews while the Devils use rider replacement for the injured Bradley Andrews.

Buxton make one change to the team from Thursday’s defeat at the Isle of Wight with Sam Woolley coming in for Kieran Douglas.

Hitmen team manager Joshua Moss said: “It’s going to be very difficult against a team that are on a roll currently and have been boosted by their win over Birmingham on Wednesday, but their track is small and tight and very similar to ours at Hi-Edge and hopefully we can come away from something from the meeting.”

PLYMOUTH: Ellis Perks, Bradley Andrews R/R/, Henry Atkins (Captain), Richard Andrews, Alfie Bowtell, Macauley Leek, Ryan Terry-Daley.

BUXTON: Ben Wilson, Lewis Whitmore, Connor Coles, Tom Woolley (Captain), James Cockle R/R, Sam Woolley, Corban Pavitt.
