National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Chorley or Derby County that keep their silverware dream alive.

Chorley form and stats

Action has already taken place for Chorley in FA Cup as they have defeated York City, Gateshead, Peterborough United and Wigan Athletic to reach the 3rd Round. Chorley was eliminated in the 1st round last season in the FA Cup.

When playing at home in the Vanarama National League North, Chorley have managed 2 wins, 1 draw and suffered 2 defeats from 5 games. 4W-0D-0L is the hard facts regardless of venue in the FA Cup for Chorley. Two home wins in a row for Chorley bring valid hopes of a third.

In their previous game, the manager J. Vermiglio led his Chorley to a defeat in the Vanarama National League North match away at Fylde. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at The Chorley Group Victory Park Stadium. Before that match, a Vanarama National League North win away at Chester.

Chorley were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Leamington are coming to town in three days.

The Chorley fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 6 in 5 matches. Chorley have conceded 6 in these home matches.

Derby County form and stats

County's mission in FA Cup last season failed in the 5th round.

3 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses. That’s the product of Derby County playing as the away team in the Championship this season.

County lost away at Sheffield Wednesday (0-1) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Before that one, a nice away victory 4-0 at Birmingham City.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting County as they have only managed to score 9 times from 11 away games in the league. It's not easy to score on Derby County as they have only conceded 10 goals from these away games.
