Leicester Lions welcome back Mads Korneliussen, Jason Doyle and Nicolai Klindt for their Elite League fixture against Belle Vue Aces at the Jordan Road Surfacing Stadium tonight.
All three missed the home defeat to Swindon last time out, which coincided with a qualifying round of the Grand Prix competition in Poland.
It will be the first occasion since Leicester faced Lakeside Hammers on April 12 that the club has not had to rely on guest riders for a home fixture, while Klindt makes his home debut after signing for the Rapid Solicitors Lions last month.
Although Lions promoter David Hemsley was looking forward to a settled period following a spate of injuries, it has been an uncertain few days after Wednesday's match at Birmingham was cancelled.
The West Midlands club were due to race in tonight's return fixture at Leicester, but Hemsley made sure of a contingency plan should the Brummies, as it turned out, be unable to fulfil their commitment.
"Having read reports that Birmingham were struggling this season to make ends meet, we were not surprised to receive confirmation that our fixture at Perry Barr on Wednesday had been cancelled and that did cast a large doubt over the return fixture at our stadium," said Hemsley.
"We had to have some sort of contingency plan should the worse come to the worse, while we awaited official news from the British Speedway Promoters Association as to the situation.
"Knowing that Belle Vue wanted to re-arrange the fixture scheduled for August 14 at Leicester, we began a dialogue with them and the outcome was an agreement for the Aces to replace Birmingham tonight."
Although Leicester are back to full strength, the switch of dates has left Belle Vue without Matej Zagar, who is committed to riding for Slovenia in a qualifying round of the World Team Cup.
In his place, the Aces have recruited Coventry's Chris Harris as a replacement. The Grand Prix rider has already ridden twice at Leicester, and both times he finished on the winning side.
At reserve, the visitors have been forced into two further changes as Stefan Nielsen is unfit following a crash three weeks ago, and Lee Payne is required by his National League club, Stoke Potters.
In their place, Belle Vue have included two of the Lion Cubs team members, Dan Greenwood and Tom Perry, who lost his place in the senior side last month but has continued to captain the juniors.
When the clubs last met at Leicester in May, the Lions came out on top 50-43.
Belle Vue currently sit eighth in the Elite League and, while their home form is impressive, having won five matches by the maximum three points, the Aces have yet to win away from home.
Leicester: 1 Jason Doyle, 2 Simon Stead, 3 Mads Korneliussen, 4 Nicolai Klindt, 5 Krzysztof Buczkowski, 6 Josh Bates, 7 Max Clegg
Belle Vue: 1 Chris Harris, 2 Richie Worrall, 3 Scott Nicholls, 4 Michael Palm Toft, 5 Craig Cook, 6 Dan Greenwood, 7 Tom Perry.
