Town are fifth in the table with games in hand on the teams above them.
Irlam are also well placed in eighth spot, having recently defeated Chadderton 5-0 at Silver Street.
Manager Tony Mills, fresh from his side’s 4-1 midweek win at Ashton Town in the First Division Trophy, will be looking for Oldham to continue an excellent run which has seen them pick up 10 points from a possible 12 in the league.
CHADDERTON, in sixth place, are away to division one new boys Wigan Robin Park, who are fourth.
The Broadway club will be without midfield man Ian Knapman, who begins a ban following his sending-off in the Boxing Day derby against Oldham Town.
Manager Paul Buckley has also lost the services of Nick Fraine and Louis Maynard, who have returned to university.
Chadderton reserves are also away, to Colne.
