Crompton go in to the game 12 points adrift of third placed Enfield and 22 points behind Littleborough.

Crompton left Accrington with a hard fought 4 wicket win when the clubs met back in June to go clear at the top of the table.

Accrington make two changes with Stuart Crabtree and Kian Farnworth returning in place of David Ormerod and Toby Bulcock.

The seconds entertain Middleton on Sunday.

The thirds host Ramsbottom on Saturday.

This season's Looking Back Feature takes us back to 1992 when Dipak Patel was professional.
