LEIGH RMI entertain Doncaster tonight knowing that they have never beaten the Belle Vue outfit since being promoted to the Conference.
At least the Railwaymen will start with a full complement of players. They ended Saturday's game at Dagenham and Redbridge a player short and ended each of last year's matches against Rovers with ten men after controversial red cards.
RMI start with influential midfielder Ged Kielty back in the squad after suspension and striker Tony Ellis could make a debut after struggling with injury.
The inclusion of Ellis will be a boost to an RMI strikeforce that missed a host of chances on Saturday. Damien Whitehead was the main culprit and it could be the former Macclesfield forward who misses out to accomodate Ellis - accompanying the rejuvenated Tony Black and Dino Maamria in attack.
Manager Steve Waywell will be more worried about the defence. Sloppy at the start of the last campaign as RMI won just four points from their first eight games, the Leigh manager does not want a repeat of that form.
