LEIGH have to pick themselves up after last week's disastrous 3-0 mauling by fellow-relegation strugglers Hucknall.

In contrast to the Railwaymen, opponents Tamworth will be on a high after their 3-2 midweek victory over Burscough secured their Blue Square North status.

RMI, whose relegation now appears a mere formaility, will have new signings Cayne Hanley and David Prout looking to make their home debuts, but they will have to neutralise the threat of Gareth Sheldon, who grabbed a hat-trick against Burscough.

The Lambs found themselves amongst the pre-season favourites for the Blue Square North title after being relegated from the Blue Square.

With midfielder Robin Gibson returning from suspension, Steve Bleasdale has several options in midfield, with a return for Gibson dependant on whether the manager chooses to hand a debut to on-loan Southport midfielder Prout, or keep faith with the central midfield pairing of Jonathan Goulding and Neil Carroll, impressive in recent games.
