Scarborough Athletic boss Kelly relishing Darlington clash
Boro take on the National League North side at the Flamingo Land Stadium on Saturday, 1pm kick-off.
The hosts welcome back Kian Spence, who had been on trial with York City, for the clash, but are without injured trio Luke Porritt, Isaac Assenso and Kieran Weledji as they look to build on pre-season wins against Eccleshill United and Bridlington Town.

"It'll be a great test for the players and will also give us a good idea of how far we have come in pre-season," said Kelly.
"We have a strong squad out for the match and it will be good to see how they perform against strong opposition in Darlington.
"Losing Poz is a huge blow as he was having a good pre-season, but we are starting to get there with the squad now and want to bring just two or three more in before the Atherton game a week on Saturday."
