Alva will aim to put recent league disappointment behind them when they host Notre Dame in the Scottish Amateur Cup second round.
The hosts suffered a heavy defeat in their most recent Division One outing, conceding eight goals to local rivals Riverside in a one-sided derby at home.
That result leaves Alva looking to regroup quickly as they turn their attention to cup competition.
Their visitors, Notre Dame, who compete in the SMAFA, will provide the opposition as both sides seek a place in the next round.
Elsewhere in Division One, Riverside will visit Glasgow University, while Milton, who moved into second place after defeating Glasgow University 3-1, will take on Dailly in their own cup tie.
Greenock HSFP, fresh from a 15-0 victory over Cambusbarron Rovers, are also in cup action against Calderglen.
In the Premier Division, Bannockburn will face Westerlands, looking to recover from their narrow 3-2 defeat to Strathclyde University last time out.
Dunipace remain in second place in the Premier Division, three points behind leaders Drumchapel, following their dramatic 2-1 win at St Joseph’s, secured by an 88th minute goal from Liam Griffin.
Cambusbarron Rovers, meanwhile, have no scheduled fixture this week following their heavy defeat at Greenock HSFP.
The Scottish Amateur Cup second round ties represent a break from league action for many sides, with Alva among those hoping to seize the chance for cup progress.
Alva’s focus, however, will remain firmly on responding in front of their home supporters as they welcome Notre Dame.
