Create a scheduled task in Android to execute a Linux script

Hello
I've installed on my non-rooted smartphne, the Userland app and installed in it the Ubuntu distro.
I've then created a Linux command to extract RSS feeds and generate an epub ( via the Calibre software I(ve installed in the Ubuntu)

Now, I want to create an Android task which would launch Userland every day à 8 a.m.
And if possible this task would also execute the script I've created in Linux (otherwise, I will create a schedule task in Linux)

Have you any ideas about an Android app which would do that ?

(NB : if you already know Calibre, you will suggest to use on my laptop the calibre scheduling feature and awake my laptop with Windows Task Manager. But I want to close my laptop when I am away for several days)
Thanks a lot !
Villard
