“Thors Niemly will come back into the squad after a week off following a knock on the ankle, but other than that, the squad will remain the same,” said Launceston United coach, Mark Egan.
“We are still awaiting the return of a number of players, who will add more depth to the group, but for now it’s more or less the same group that played against South Hobart, Knights and Ulverstone.
“We are expecting a gruelling game against Olympia as they are a well-organised, well-coached side.
“Add to those ingredients their physical approach, and those on the side lines should be in for an entertaining game.”
Olympia won 2-0 against United in a very close game.United finished last of the Group B and will play against Launceston City in a hot derby for the first play-off to decide who is going to play the 5/6th places of the Steve Hudson Cup.
