National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Peterborough Sports or Gainsborough Trinity that keep their silverware dream alive.
The visiting Gainsborough Trinity played their last game only four days ago, a Non League Premier: Northern match. That game, against Bamber Bridge, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Gainsborough Trinity.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Needham Market are coming to town in three days.
Gainsborough Trinity form and stats
Last season their Fa Trophy adventure ended in the 3rd round qualifying.Things could have gone better for Gainsborough Trinity in their Non League Premier: Northern away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right.
It's the second away game in a row for Gainsborough Trinity, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Bamber Bridge in the Non League Premier: Northern last time out. It was a Non League Premier: Northern defeat before that one as the away game against Radcliffe Borough wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.
A new game in only three days for Gainsborough, the Non League Premier: Northern home match versus South Shields. Busy days.
