THE New Saints can claim a place in the quarter-finals of the Loosemores League Cup with a victory over Bangor City on Tuesday night.
A win would put the Saints top of their group with one game still to play, while the Citizens will have completed their fixtures.
TNS have already beaten the Blues 2-0 away in the competition, and followed-up by winning their Welsh Premier fixture at Farrar Road on Saturday.
Ryan Marriott is one of several 'fringe' players almost certain to start and the visitors won't be relishing facing the youngster again after his superb performance in the last 20 minutes after coming off the bench.
Out for several weeks with an injury, Tommy Holmes was back in action at Bangor as a late sub and could earn his first start of the season, while ex-City midfielder Chris Seargeant is an injury doubt after picking-up a knock in the first-half.
The visitors will definitely be without skipper Marc Limbert, who is serving a three-match ban, and striker Jamie Reed who is unavailable.
