In this round of the FA Cup, Bury host Bromsgrove Sporting. The two teams come from different leagues, but their recent results make this game one to watch. Bury just drew 3-3 in the FA Vase, while Bromsgrove Sporting just drew 1-1 in their own league. Bury have reached this round unbeaten in several matches, and in their own league they score fairly regularly. Their attack is the side that clearly creates more chances, averaging close to 60% possession per match and about 7 shots on target per game. Bromsgrove Sporting, meanwhile, are also unbeaten in 5 straight matches, but they are a team that prioritizes solidity, with about 53% possession and about 5 shots on target per game. Defensively they have conceded only 8 goals in 9 league matches of their own. If Bury get the opening goal from their sustained attacking pressure, the game should open up into more of an end-to-end affair, and Bromsgrove Sporting will have to push up to respond, which is the moment the away side are good at countering. But if the away side hold out until mid-game, the match should gradually turn into one where Bury have to attack harder and risk being caught on the break.
