The Shop and Save Lautoka soccer team will travel tomorrow to their opening O-League playoff against Marist FC with only one goal-keeper.

Coach Imdad Ali will rely on the experience of Australian based James Nicholas to play in the goal-keeper position after number 1 choice Alifereti Baleiloa was suspended following the IDC lost to Navua.

Nicholas replaced Baleiloa in the first half of the IDC final and denied Navua any other scoring opportunities.

Lautoka is only travelling with 15 players to the Solomon Islands which will see one of their defenders who will be in the reserve bench covering up for the goalkeeper position.

The team leaves our shores tomorrow and will take on Marist FC at 4pm on Sunday in Honiara.

In action for Group A this weekend will be defending champions Auckland City FC taking on Tahiti's AS Manu in Auckland on Saturday.

In Group B, Hekari United FC will play away against Tafea FC in Port Vila on Saturday.
