Nottingham Panthers defenceman Rumun Ndur is set to face his former club Coventry Blaze at the weekend.

Ndur has missed the last two matches, but is expected to return as the two sides meet at the National Ice Centre on Sunday in the Challenge Cup.

Panthers are the current Challenge Cup holders, but drew the opening match in their group at Hull last month.

Forward David Clarke has missed the last four matches, and it is hoped he will also be back in the line-up.
