Bottom meets top in the Jewson League premier division this weekend.

Harwich and Parkeston, who have only picked up a single point this season, entertain the league leaders, Wroxham.

The Shrimpers travelled to the Norfolk side on the opening day of the season and were on the wrong end of a 6-0 goal drubbing.

Chairman Tony Armstrong remains caretaker manager following the sacking of Nigel Box, and is depleted of four first-teamers.

Matthew Stace and Michael Brothers are both on county duty for the Essex Under-18 side, Daryll Eagle is unavailable and Kevin Mann has a groin injury.

Armstrong drafts into the squad three reserve-team players in Paul Coombes, Ray Wigham and Adrian Armstrong.
