Star Match - Division 1 Central

Didcot Town V Bedworth United

A real test ahead for Didcot as they host Bedworth United look for a play-off place.

The Railwaymen return to action unbeaten in their last 2 games with back to back clean sheets in the bank and looking to try and avenge a 2-1 defeat at Bedworth earlier in the season.

There is mixed news for manager Jamie Heapy ahead of tomorrows contest, new signing Harley Giles who has joined the club from Ardley Utd goes straight into the squad while the 2 Jack's Longford and Powell both look set to again miss out. Ollie Thomas continued his recovery from a foot injury sustained at North Leigh with another substitute appearance at Daventry last weekend but he may have to do with a place on the bench again due to Didcot's impressive defensive form. Brett Gardner also returned to the club last week and will be pushing to get back onto the field in a red shirt once again.

The Greenbacks travel into Oxfordshire looking to keep their 100% record against teams from that part of the country intact.

Didcot's last 3 games have returned 4 points with a win against fellow Oxfordshire side Thame, a draw to Dunstable and a loss to St Neots.

Didcot will be without winger George Reid who scored Didcot's goal at The OVAL after suffering a double fracture in his foot in the 2-0 victory over Thame, this will rule him out for the rest of the Railwaymen's season.

Didcot will be desperately looking to keep all 3 points at the Loop Meadow stadium to keep them ahead of those below to prevent them getting sucked into what could be a relegation battle with Wantage now starting to pick up a couple of points.
