National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Stourbridge or Guiseley that keep their silverware dream alive.
Stourbridge and Guiseley should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Stourbridge form and stats
Last season their Fa Trophy adventure ended in the 3rd round qualifying.This match is a Fa Trophy match, and the hometeam has the total statistics 3 wins, 1 draw and 0 losses in this competition.
The Stourbridge fans got no joy from their last match, a Non League Premier: Southern Central game also here at War Memorial Athletic Ground: A 0-2 defeat against Banbury United.
Before that game, the 4-0 home victory against Redditch United.The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Stourbridge have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found two matches with the results: Won zero, drawn one and lost one.
Guiseley form and stats
Guiseley's mission in Fa Trophy last season failed in the 3rd round.Guiseley lost away at Spennymoor Town (1-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.
Ahead of that game was the 0-0 draw at home against Farsley Celtic in the Vanarama National League North.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Guiseley playing away and similar expectations, we found six relevant matches. Results were two Guiseley wins, four draws and zero defeats.
Guiseley have another match that requires travelling in just four days, a Vanarama National League North match against Fylde. A grim timetable for them!
