Rushden & D. face a trip to Kettering Town at Rockingham Road Ground on Monday afternoon, and will hope to continue their unbeaten record at the ground. In the past, victory has been gained over 50% of the time for Diamonds.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in March 2010, as the visitors ran out cosy 0 - 3 winners in a (Conference) Premier match.
