The Stags were out of action last weekend as they look to pick up their second victory of the campaign.

Ross Sutherland started the season off with a 40–10 bonus point victory over Banff, but they then suffered a heavy 60–12 defeat in Shetland.

Ross Sutherland face a Highland 2nd XV team who won the Caledonia North Two title last season.

But due to being a second team, they are not eligible for promotion to Caledonia One.

Highland 2nd XV have won all three league matches they have played this season.

It includes a 29–10 victory against Moray along with a 35–7 win over Banff and a 41–15 victory against Mackie.

Elsewhere in Caledonia North Two on Saturday, league leaders Moray will aim to stay top of the table when they travel to Stonehaven to face Mackie.

North Police Scotland welcome Shetland to Aberdeen.

Gordonians 2nd XV face RAF Lossiemouth and Banff take on Aberdeen Grammar 2nd XV.

Meanwhile in National One, Fourth place Highland will travel down to second placed Kelso.

Highland are five points behind Kelso in National One and a bonus point victory could move them level on points.

Meanwhile in Caledonia North Three.

Highland 3rd XV will look to maintain their 100 per cent record when they welcome Caithness to Canal Park in Inverness.

Inverness Craig Dunain will look for their first win of the season, when they travel to Aberdeenshire to take on Turriff.

Inverness Craig Dunain Women are also in action tomorrow as they are in action against Shetland Valkyries with the match being played at Canal Park.
