Valley's league record has been very poor in recent weeks, with six defeats out of the last seven including two humiliating home defeats to Hitchin Town and Gloucester City in the last two games, conceding seven goals in the process.

Rugby did, however, record a victory in their last away game against Cirencester Town when David Stone and Scott Musgrove were on target to come from behind.

The Bluebirds lie fourth in the BGB Premier, well safe within the top play-off zone and just four points behind TeamBath on top of the table.

Chippenham have already tasted victory against Valley this season when Kevin Halliday's first half strike was enough to secure a win at Butlin Road in November.

In their seven meetings against Chippenham, Rugby have managed only a solitary win which came in the corresponding fixture last season at Hardenhuish Park. Goals from Jason Taylor, Danny Hall and Delroy Gordon sealed victory for Rugby.

Manager Rod Brown will hope to have the services of Scott Musgrove back after missing the defeat to Gloucester City on Tuesday.

Rugby Town Squad From: Richard Anstiss, Aaron Stringfellow, Stephan Morley, Craig Herbert, Delroy Gordon, Ashley Blake, Richard Scott, Neil King, Tom Breward, Scott Musgrove, Mark Edge, David Staff, David Kolodynski, David Stone, Dave Pearson.
