Struggling visitors Forest Green Rovers make the long trip from Gloucestershire to Hilton Park and will be hoping to inflict a second home defeat of the season upon RMI, following last weekend's first home loss in the 1-0 defeat against Woking. Leigh RMI manager Mark Patterson has the rare luxury of a full strength side to choose from, which is always a massive bonus with a squad lacking in size as much as RMI do, and Patterson has urged his side to go all out for victory and put on a good performance against their struggling visitors.
The Railwaymen will be looking to get back on track very quickly, following last weekend's disappointing defeat at home to Woking, who came out as 1-0 victors despite RMI dominating the majority of the game.
Forest Green are facing a race against time to have a trio of new signings available for selection for Saturday afternoon's encounter. Former Barry Town duo Jamie Moralee and Richard Kennedy have agreed terms with Rovers but are awaiting international clearance prior to being able to make their debuts. Also looking for a first outing for Forest Green will be striker Steve Brodie who this week signed on a month's loan from Chester City.
Former Manchester City defender Denny Ingram is doubtful with a back injury, while Gareth Stoker is definitely out because of a dislocated shoulder.
