Saturday afternoon sees RMI play in their first 'return' fixture of the season when Nuneaton Borough visit Hilton Park for a vital Blue Square North encounter, with Nuneaton winning 1-0 in the first meeting between the sides at Libery Way in September.

Leigh boss Steve Bleasdale has continued his recent rebuilding of the side with goalkeeper Tim Dittmer making his debut in last weekend's 1-0 defeat at Alfreton Town, and the ex-Vauxhall stopper is set to start in goal after missing the 4-2 Co-Operative Challenge Trophy victory over Clitheroe in midweek.

Scorer of two goals in that game was former Liverpool man Mark Smyth, and he is likely to at least be on the substitutes bench as he competes with Sean O'Neil to partner Kieran Lugsden in attack.

Midfielder Andy Heald plays his final game before suspension following his sending off in the 2-2 draw with Boston United earlier in the month, while Scott Willis is still sidelined through injury.

Nuneaton travel north full of confidence after a 2-1 win at rivals Tamworth last weekend put them in eighth position, although Borough don't have the best of records at Hilton Park, having lost both of their previous Blue Square North visits by a goal to nil, including a pivotal game towards the end of last season.

Saturday's game kicks off at 3pm.
