- AWAY
- Venue: Ridge Sports Pavilion, Wood Ln, Marple, Stockport SK6 7RE
- Notes: Eccles 1s got back on track after their 5-0 loss to Orrell with a 52-12 win against Oswestry. They’ll be looking to follow up that performance with another victory away at Marple this weekend. Eccles earned a 30-5 win at Gorton Street when the sides last met in December. Eccles are currently in 3rd position, 3 points behind Orrell with promotion still a possibility with 2 league games remaining.

- 2XV v BROUGHTON 1XV
- KO 3pm
- HOME
- Venue: Gorton St
- Notes: Eccles 2s brought back an impressive 0-65 away victory when the teams last met in November. Recent results however have been disappointing, but there were signs of a return to form with the second-half performance in last weekend’s 36-26 defeat at Trafford MV. A strong win could keep the 2s in contention although with just two games remaining, promotion looks unlikely.
