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

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Vanarama National League South. That game, against Dover Athletic, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Taunton Town.

Torquay United form and stats

Torquay United was eliminated in the 3rd round last season in the Fa Trophy.

Torquay United's struggle is real here at Plainmoor Ground with only 12 points collected from 13 National League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-6-5.

A nice win for Torquay last time playing, versus Halifax Town. That was also a home game and the match ended 1-0 with Hall scoring for the victors.

A National League defeat was the result before that one, 0-2 away at Yeovil Town.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Torquay United's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played 5 games, won 2 matches, drawn 3 and lost 0.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Torquay, as the National League home game vs Bromley is only three days away.

Torquay United have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Plainmoor Ground with 22 goals in 13 league matches. Torquay United are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (27 from 13 played).

Taunton Town form and stats

Taunton's mission in Fa Trophy last season failed in the 3rd round qualifying.

Taunton Town lost away at Dover Athletic (0-1) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.

Preceding that game was the away Vanarama National League South victory against Weymouth with the score of 3-1.

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 Taunton Town playing away, we found 4 games. Results were 0 away wins, 4 draws and 0 home wins.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Eastbourne Borough in just three days.
