Accrington play host to Leigh RMI at Crown Ground on Wednesday evening, hoping to break their duck against the visitors. Out of their two previous meetings, the Reds have lost both.
The last time the two teams met at Accrington was just over four years ago, in April 1999, with Leigh RMI inflicting a narrow 1-2 defeat upon the Reds in a (Northern) Premier match.
