SWINDON Wildcats' home fixture against London Raiders this evening will take place, despite concern earlier today about the condition of the ice at the Link Centre. 

Aaron Nell's men will be looking to add to their two opening league victories against Invicta Dynamos last weekend when taking to the ice at a later than scheduled 6.45pm tonight.

The club announced in a tweet shortly after 1pm today that an assessment regarding the rink's condition will be carried out at 3pm. 

An improvement in conditions then saw the club confirm tonight's match will take place - with face-off delayed by half an hour. 

Live coverage of the game will be available on our website from 6.15pm.
