DIRECTOR of rugby Neil Mitchell says Stourbridge's players are relishing the prospect of disrupting Hull Ionians' promotion charge.
Stour will go head-to-head with the current leaders at Stourton Park this Saturday as they look to avenge a 50-13 defeat earlier in the season.
Mitchell said: "This is the first time in four years that the players won't have any pressure on them.
"They can hopefully go out and give a good account of themselves against a side hoping to avoid having to go through the play-offs.
"There is no love lost between the two sides after our last meeting and some bitter memories from two years ago. The players are really looking forward to making it a bruising game of rugby.
"The last time we played them we were suffering with a lot of injuries. It will be very different this time and we want to give them a taste of their own medicine.
"Everyone is relishing the opportunity to take them on again."
Mitchell reported a clean bill of health throughout his squad after a break in the fixture list last weekend.
Stour will complete their season with an away trip to Chester on April 18 before welcoming Harrogate to Stourton Park on April 25.
