Marc McGregor’s National League South Weston-super-Mare host John Rendell’s Southern Premier One South Paulton Rovers in the first of two Somerset Premier Cup semi finals. It's a re-run of last season's final won 3-2 by Weston.
It’s an all-Southern Prem affair on Badger’s Hill, where Rob Dray’s promotion-chasing Taunton Town will seek to avenge a recent 2-0 league defeat by Danny Greaves’ Frome.
Troy Simpson, in the first minute, and on-loan Bristol Rovers teenage midfielder Tom Mehew, scored for the Robins 10 days ago.
In one of tonight’s two Southern Prem games, Martyn Rogers’ Tiverton Town can move above 13th placed visitors Chesham United with a home win at Ladysmead.
It’s seventh versus eighth at Cinderford in the evening’s only Southern League One South game as Keiran Baggs’ Melksham Town visit Paul Michaels’ Foresters in a play-off chase.
Buckland Athletic host Cadbury Heath at Homer’s Heath in the Western League Les Phillips Cup quarter finals. The winners will be at home to title-chasing Plymouth Parkway.
Tavistock hosts the Walter C Parson South West Peninsula League Cup semi-final between Elburton Villa and Premier rivals Saltash United. Saltash' Kimberley Stadium hosts tomorrow's night semi final between Cullompton and Falmouth.
In the Devon Premier Cup semi final SWPL East Bovey Tracey face North Devon league Braunton at Crediton. Last season's beaten finalists Torridgeside await the winners in this season's final.
Western Premier title chasing Bitton – in third place - visit fourth from bottom Brislington while ninth placed Cribbs host Chipping Sodbury Town, 16th.
A Bitton win would put them level on points with second placed Plymouth Parkway, who can go top tomorrow with a home win over Hallen.
