Jersey's newest football team plays its first ever game this afternoon.

Jersey Bulls take on Stevenage in a pre-season friendly at Springfield.

The club was formed last year and will compete in the Combined Counties League Division One next season.

League Two Stevenage have Jersey-born striker Kurtis Guthrie in their ranks.

Bulls Director Ian Horswell is expecting a really tough challenge.

"They have full-time professional athletes so it's going to be a huge test for their lads, but something we hope they'll step up for and enjoy the occasion."

Fans can still buy tickets online from £6 ahead of the game, which starts at 3pm.

They can also be bought at the ticket office in the lead up to kick-off.
