Recent respective form guides
Leigh RMI will be hoping to improve on their poor home form, collecting just 4 draws from the last six contests. While Railwaymen have scored 8, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.
Accrington S.'s away form is none too clever either, losing just 1 from the last six, but amazingly drawing the other 5. The Reds's have scored 9 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 10.
Leigh RMI are stuck down in the relegation zone of Nationwide Conference with a return of just 19 points from their 22 games thus far. Accrington S.'s 34 points from 22 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 8th position.
