REDDITCH are bidding to set the record straight after surrendering pyschological advantage to opponents Edwardians at the weekend.
The Kingfishers went down 38-12 to the North Midlands One pacesetters in a league encounter days before making the same trip in the Intermediate Cup.
Redditch launched their cup campaign with an impressive 14-6 triumph over higher league Berkswell and Balsall but could come unstuck against a side from their own level.
And on-field captain Tim Aris is looking to make changes for Saturday's daunting tie (ko 3pm).
"We have to look to strengthen the forwards," said the club vice captain, leading the side with Mark Rose ruled out with a leg injury.
But Redditch go into the clash without second row Paul Green who has a knee problem.
"Having lost to Edwardians will play a big pyschological part at the weekend," admitted Aris.
"We have to get a bit of pride back in the cup game and will have to face them again at home later in the season."
