Ninth-placed Rainworth Miners' Welfare travel to Dennyfield looking to reach the 40-point watershed but they have been marooned on 37 points for their last three games.

The Dennyboys go into the game unbeaten in their last three league games.

Basement outfit Liversedge journey to face mid-table Garforth Town, who have banked twice as many points as Sedge from the same number of games.

Garforth have picked up four points from the last six on offer and have a psychological edge after winning the reverse fixture 6-1 at Clayborn in September.

Eccleshill United head into Nottinghamshire for a Division One mid-table clash with Teversal.
