St Peter take on St Paul's in Cup

Jersey Scottish with the Le Riche Cup
Jersey Scottish won last season's Le Riche Cup after beating St Paul's 4-3

St Peter will take on St Paul's in the first round of this season's Le Riche Cup after the draw was made on Sunday.

St Peter won the trophy in 2007 while St Paul's lost last year's final to Jersey Scottish.

The Scots begin with a very winnable home tie against Championship side First Tower United.

The other all top-flight tie sees bottom side Rozel Rovers, who have yet to win a match this season, take on third-from-bottom Sporting Academics.

Le Riche Cup 1st Round Draw
Rozel Rovers v Sporting Academics
Jersey Scottish v First Tower Utd
Portuguese Club v Trinity
Jersey Nomads v Magpies
Beeches v Jersey Wanderers
Grouville v St Brelade
St Peter v St Paul's
St Lawrence v St Martin/SCF
Trinity will face a real tough task as they go to runaway Championship leaders Portuguese Club, while fourth-placed Premiership side Grouville should have an easier time of it at home to fifth-placed Championship side St Brelade.

There are two all-Championship ties, with the bottom two, St Lawrence and St Martin Sporting Club Francais, going head to head, while third-placed Jersey Nomads host fourth-placed Magpies.

All eight ties will kick-off at 1400 GMT on Saturday, 15 November.
