In a North Group fixture, Derbyshire Falcons will cross swords with Leicestershire Foxes at County Cricket Ground, Derby on June 9.
Placed eighth on the points table, Derbyshire have managed to win only two of their six games so far in the competition.
The Shan Masood-led team won back-to-back encounters, including a 70-run victory versus Leicestershire, early on in the tournament. After that, however, they could not ride on the momentum and slumped to one-sided defeats against the other teams.
While only Wayne Madsen (37) and Hayden Kerr (29) had a decent outing with the bat, George Scrimshaw was their mainstay from the bowling department in the last game against Northamptonshire that saw them suffering a five-wicket drubbing.
On the other hand, Leicestershire have also lacked consistency, resulting in their fifth-position stay on the points table with three wins in seven matches to their credit.
Colin Ackermann and Co head to the game after facing a seven-wicket defeat at the hands of table-toppers Lancashire. The Foxes were completely bamboozled in the batting front, with only Lewis Hill (50) showing some fight. Naveen-ul-Haq claimed two scalps, but his effort proved to be too little.
