Boston United will have their sights set on the first round proper of the FA Youth Cup on Wednesday evening.

The Pilgrims play host to Kimberley Miners Welfare at The Jakemans Stadium (kick-off 7.45pm) in a fixture originally scheduled to take place at their opponents' Stag Ground.

Kimberley's floodlighting issues have necessitated the switch and Martyn Bunce's young guns will now be targeting a fourth consecutive home win to reach the competition proper.

Victories over Lincoln United (5-0), Leicester Nirvana (1-0) and Loughborough Dynamo (3-1) have pushed the Pilgrims to the brink of round one.

They will be without the services of injured midfield duo Oli Drummond and Jack Henton.

The Mick George Stand will be open for spectators, with admission priced £4 for adults and £2 for concessions. The Pilgrim Lounge will be open throughout the evening for refreshments.
