MALVERN Rugby Club return to their Midlands Two West campaign tomorrow (Saturday) when Old Laurentians are the visitors to Spring Lane, 2.30pm kick-off.
Malvern welcome back several players into their side including full back Andy Longley, Julian Davies, Dave King, who has returned from a three-week trip to Australia, and hooker Andy Logan, who plays his first game of the season after breaking a wrist in training.
Malvern director of rugby Dave Robins said: "This is a vital game for us and we need to bounce back after our defeat at Stafford. That was a game where we played well below par and lost the game rather than they won it."
Malvern will be hoping for a good performance against Old Laurentians as the following Saturday they travel to league leaders and still unbeaten Burton.
Robins said: "The Burton fixture is a massive game for us and we need to go there with our tails up. It is a huge psychological game because they come back to us before Christmas and we need to have the edge.
"There are several sides in this league that can cause upsets, especially at home. We must win all our home games this season and need to win this week."
