Sheffield Tigers yesterday opted to face Glasgow Tigers in the end-of-season Championship play-offs.
The Yorkshire combine are currently to of the ten-strong table with 83 points from 34 fixtures.
Glasgow are fourth with 67 points from the same number of matches.
The first-leg has been confirmed for Yorkshire on Thursday (7.30pm) with the second in Glasgow on Tuesday, September 26.
Edinburgh Monarchs, who are third in the table with 71 points from 35 meetings, have confirmed they will square-up to Ipswich Witches, who finished second and have 77 points from 36 fixtures, with the first-leg at Foxhall on Thursday.
The return will be at Armadale on Friday (tapes-up 7.30pm) and a trip to Suffolk should not concern the Scots.
They are the only team to win there this season and have revenge on their mind as Ipswich knocked Monarchs out of the play-offs at this stage last season.
