The FA Trophy is a cup game where two teams from different levels meet, and this match comes at a time when both have recently come through tough games. Redditch United have just drawn 2-2 at home in the league, while Gloucester City have just lost 0-2 in the FA Cup. Redditch United in their own league have collected more draws than wins, but their attack has still been consistent, scoring 17 goals from 11 matches. Gloucester City in their own league have scored a similar 15 goals from 10 matches, but have conceded slightly more. So the two teams do not come into this in vastly different condition. The game is likely to be open and end-to-end from the start, because neither side has a defence tight enough to shut out the opposition, and as the game stretches into the closing stages Redditch United must be wary of their own defence, which concedes a lot late on. The first thing to watch is how Redditch United set up defensively in the final half hour.
