🎟 THIS AFTERNOON (4PM) PANTHERS v FIFE - BUY TICKETS 🎟
📺 WEBCAST: WATCH THE GAME ON OUR LIVE STREAM 📺
There's another huge day of ice hockey ahead as Nottingham Panthers host Fife Flyers in the Elite League (4pm face-off).
The game is sponsored by Cattle Country and it's set to be yet another sell-out at the Motorpoint Arena.
As of this morning (Sunday), there's just a handful of seats left so you are advised to secure your seats asap by clicking here.
Head Coach, Danny Stewart, said: "(The sell-outs) are fun, really fun. The last couple of months we hear games are sold-out in advance.
"It excites the guys. They're in the corridor waiting to come out and they hear the noise.
"I always talk about how important it is to get the first goal in this building and the place becomes electric. It has been a lot of fun to be a part of."
Team News in association with Evolve Injury Clinic
Panthers will once again be without forward Otto Nieminen because of a lower body injury.
There's also a doubt over the fitness of Jaakko Niskala and Reid Stefanson - both missed last night's game on the road at Manchester Storm.
Otto Nieminen on the Panthers Pre-Game Show in Saltbox
Hosted by Sam Hurst, the Panthers Pre-Game Show takes place upstairs in Saltbox in the Panthers Lair from 2:15pm this afternoon.
Panthers forward Otto Nieminen is the special guest and there's the usual live edition of the Pre-Game Podcast.
Take a visit to Pantherland

Panthers Vault now at £2,300
The Panthers Vault - in association with Interseal Fire Protection - is now up to £2,300 after it remained firmly locked following another incorrect guess last Saturday night. Tickets cost just £1 and if yours is drawn out of the hat, you go on the ice with DJ Ken Feast to try to win the money inside the vault in the second intermission. Choose one of the players from the Panthers roster shown on the jumbotron to reveal a four-digit code and see if it unlocks the vault.
Whoever goes rinkside won't be leaving empty-handed whether they crack the code or not, with two tickets for an arena show on offer at each home game. The tickets are kindly donated by the arena's main sponsor, Motorpoint. Dare you give up the chance to go for the money to open the Mystery Box? What's inside? Nobody knows!
Chuck-a-Puck
Chuck-a-Puck - sponsored by Motorpoint - is great fun for all the family. It takes place in the second intermission and the winner is the person who lands their puck closest to Paws at centre-ice. The winner gets a photo with their favourite player at the end of the game and a signed puck.
There's a bonus prize too! A remote control car drives around the centre-circle. If your puck lands inside the cockpit of the car, you have a chance to win the bonus prize of two tickets to an event at the Motorpoint Arena. Pucks cost £1 each and are on sale from sellers around the rink.
