Exeter City's pre-season match schedule kicks-off this Saturday, with a trip down to Cornwall to face Truro City in a 3pm kick-off.
The match is City's first test ahead of the 26/27 EFL Sky Bet League Two season and will see Matt Taylor's Grecians head to the Truro City Stadium to take on John Askey's Truro City. Last season, young City duo Kieran Wilson and Tom Dean spent productive spells with Truro.
The match is the first opportunity for fans to see the team ahead of the new season, so please make the trip to Truro if you can and get behind the boys!
