Basildon host Beaconsfield in crunch London One North clash

12:00pm Friday 22nd February 2013 in Sport By Chris Phillips

BASILDON will be hoping to give their relegation hopes a real boost in London One North tomorrow when they entertain Beaconsfield.

Basildon remained second from bottom in the standings despite a narrow win against local rivals Rochford Hundred last weekend.

And they will now be looking to build on that hard fought triumph when they take on a Beaconsfield side who are just one place and two points above them in the standings.

However, Beaconsfield also won last Saturday as they surprisingly saw off Romford & Gidea Park 20-13 and they will be looking to open up more of a gap on Basildon.

Rochford are still bottom of the table, five points behind Basildon, and travel to sixth placed Brentwood tomorrow.

In Essex One, fifth placed Billericay host Dagenham who are third while in Essex Two third placed Pegasus Palmerians are at home to seventh placed Brightlingsea.

>THURROCK face a trip to Westcombe Park in National Three London & SE tomorrow but Westcliff are without a fixture.
