Leamington date back to 1891 and earned their nickname ‘The Brakes’ in 1937 when they became a works team for the Lockheed brake manufacturing company. Between 1988 and 2000 the club were in abeyance.
The visitors have scored first in all their first 5 games in 2018-19. They won both meetings with FCUM in 2017-18
Leamington were bottom of the table when they first visited Broadhurst Park in September 2017, winning 2-1. Midfielder Kieran Dunbar scored on his Brakes debut in this fixture.
Striker Ahmed Obeng netted for Rushall Olympic against FCUM in a 2-0 win at Gigg Lane in September 2013.
Danny Racchi was sent off in the last meeting between the clubs at the New Windmill Ground in March.
