Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Notts County & Eastleigh face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Fa Trophy. All the pre-match information is available here!

Notts County have less rest than Eastleigh in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a National League game only four days ago. That game was an away game at King's Lynn Town, so at least County are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Notts County form and stats

Notts County was eliminated in the semi-finals last season in the Fa Trophy.

The home supporters can't complain about results here at Meadow Lane Stadium as Notts County have scored 23 goals to get 26 points from 11 games. The overall stats in the National League are 8-2-1 (wins-draws-losses).

It's back home for Notts County, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating King's Lynn Town away with the result 4-2. Vincent and Roberts (3) found the net in that victory. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today? What a game it was for Roberts when beating King's Lynn Town, applying the finishing touch to three goals!

Before that, Notts County had a National League home game versus Wrexham which ended with a victory 3-1.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier County matches with similar probabilities have ended with two wins, zero draws and one defeat (from three games).

Eastleigh form and stats

They also participated in Fa Trophy last season. This ended in the 3rd round.

There's been little loot from Eastleigh's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 9 away games in the National League. Eastleigh only have 2 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 1 draw.

Eastleigh are travelling again after losing away to Halifax Town in their previous match (0-4). Eastleigh lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one.

A home win before that, celebrating 3-2 vs Weymouth.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Eastleigh playing away, we found two games. Results were zero away wins, one draw and one home win.

Eastleigh have another fixture that requires travelling in just three nights, a National League fixture vs Stockport County. A strenuous timetable for the guests!

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Eastleigh as they have only managed to score 5 times from 9 away games in the league. In the opposite end, Eastleigh have conceded 15 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last five matches): Notts County one win, zero draws and Eastleigh four victories. As for goals, one match ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four games had two or less.
