Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Maidstone United & Poole Town face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Fa Trophy. All the pre-match information is available here!
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Poole Town have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 0-0-1 (win-draw-loss) from one match.
