Widnes go head-to-head with Prescot Cables tonight for a place in the final of the Liverpool Senior Cup.

The Whites travel to Volair Park in buoyant mood in a bid to reach the final of the competition for the first time in the Club's history.

Standing in their way, however, is a stern test against a Cables side going in search for a third successive triumph in the Liverpool County FA's premier club competition.

To reach the last four, Widnes have so far beaten City of Liverpool and a youthful Everton side, while Brian Richardson's Prescot side have dispatched St Helens Town, Bootle and Lower Breck.

The prize for the winners is a chance to meet Southport in the final, who booked their place with a 3-1 win at Rylands in the competition's other semi-final last Tuesday.

If the scoreline is level after 90 minutes, the two sides will contest a penalty shootout.

Team News

Widnes have no new injury concerns ahead of their trip to Cables.

Central defenders Joe Herbert and Phil Mooney are both cup-tied, while Danny Ventre continues his recovery from a dislocated elbow.

On-loan forward Finlay Sinclair-Smith is eligible for selection.

Previous Meetings

These two sides have met on two previous occasions, with the most recent coming in the Evo-Stik West back in December.

Dale Korie-Butler scored twice in two second half minutes to complete a Widnes turn-around after Chris Almond had opened the scoring.

Widnes are undefeated against their Knowsley-based rivals, beating Cables in a Senior Cup first round tie back in 2014 on penalties following a 3-3 draw after 90 minutes.
