FC Isle of Man will aim to keep their unbeaten start to the North West Counties Premier Division season going when they host Ramsbottom United this weekend.

The Ravens head into Saturday evening’s match at the Bowl with a win and a draw under their belts.

The Manx beat FC St Helens 2-0 at the national stadium in their season opener, before drawing 0-0 with Glossop North End three days later in Derbyshire.

The bright start to new manager Lee Dixon’s tenure has placed the islanders fifth in the fledgling standings.

This weekend’s opponents have also made a good start to the 2026/27 campaign, their only blemish being a cup defeat at the hands of South Liverpool on Saturday.

In the league they have drawn with Litherland REMYCA and beaten Trafford, meaning they are only separated from the Ravens on goal difference.

This all suggests a tight match on Saturday. Kick-off is 6pm.
