Kettering Town and Quorn meet in the FA Trophy, a cup game where the two teams' most recent results point in different directions. The hosts have just thrashed their opponents in the league 4-0, while Quorn could only manage a 2-2 draw in their own last match. Kettering Town in their own league have won 6 of 12 matches and conceded only 9 goals all season, while Quorn in their own league have lost 5 of 13 matches and conceded as many as 29 goals, so the defences are worlds apart. But Quorn do not arrive in ruins, because they are unbeaten in 5 straight matches, even if 2 of those were draws. The pattern should be the hosts dominating possession and gradually grinding out goals from their home advantage. The first half may still be tight because Quorn defend solidly, but in the second half, as the game opens up and the hosts push higher, that should be the period when goals come and the game breaks apart.
