This round of the FA Cup brings Spennymoor Town to host Chester, two National League North sides who both came through the previous round together. Cup games like this have no league points at stake, only who advances to the next round. Spennymoor Town's league form is still poor, with just one win from ten league games, but they recently thrashed their opponents 4-0 at home in the cup and are unbeaten in 3 straight in all competitions. Chester, meanwhile, are going better, on a 2-match winning run, and have scored more overall this season. This game is likely to see Chester as the side pushing forward, because their form and attacking quality are better, while Spennymoor Town will probably sit back and wait for counter-attacking chances from their home advantage.
