Berko‘s current form has them on the periphery of the play off places, having just dropped away recently. Four defeats in their last six haven’t helped their cause, but two large victories against Didcot and Bedford, both of whom are in the play offs, have to be acknowledged and applauded.
Kempston suffered their first defeat in five last time out at home to AFC Dunstable. With skipper Shane Bush back in contention, as is Izale McLeod, it should be a stronger Rovers line up for this away day.
This is the penultimate away game for Kempston and a first league meeting between these sides at this venue, Berko having come from the South Midlands League. The two sides met earlier in the season, way back in August, at Hillgrounds. Kempston ran out fairly comfortable winners by three goals to nil. A result that has raised a few eyebrows given how the season has unfolded for both sides.

Basic directions;
Head toward the M1 and head south. Take exit 7 to Hemel Hempstead and head through the town toward the A41. Take the exit from the A41 marked “Chesham A416” and take the first exit on the roundabout to cross back over the A41. At the next round about take the first exit to stay on the A416. Follow this road through the town, crossing over the high street (between Mario’s and Petals Flower Shop). Broadwater is the first left turning after crossing the canal. You drive past the river end of the ground to get to the club car park, which is very small. There is a larger car park further along the road, outside the tennis club. Please check the boards in this car park for tariffs and fees.
