GAME DAY: What you can expect at Braehead Arena THIS FRIDAY 

The weekend begins here and the month ends with another crunch Elite League clash as Cardiff Devils make their way to Braehead Arena.

After two penalty shot losses last weekend, all eyes are on this one as the race for the play-offs gathers pace, and a meeting with the Challenge Cup finalists is one of the tougher ones to get ready for.

Tickets for the game remain available so get them now from the Clan website. Face off is at 7:30pm, with doors opening at 6:00pm.

Alternatively, if you can’t be here, purchase our webcast, bringing you all the action from the game, priced at £15 by heading over to ClanIHC.tv.

Friday night with the Devils

Cardiff Devils’ form might have been a little patchy since winning the Continental Cup back in January, but there’s no doubting the quality in their roster.

A midweek 6-2 home win over the Sheffield Steelers sets them up nicely for this trip and head coach Pete Russell knows what it’s like to win in this arena – both as a home and an away coach – so will have his team more than ready for a challenging night on the banks of the River Clyde.

Box Office 

The Braehead Arena box office is open between 5:30pm and 8:00pm, here to accommodate game day buyers for this or future fixtures.

However, in future where possible, fans are asked to continue to purchase tickets online in advance, but any sales at the box office will be at the same price as online sales.

Please note, tickets for this game are limited so try and get them as early as possible and not leave it too late.
