The FA Trophy is a cup game where Bridlington Town and Curzon Ashton both need to find a way through to the next round. Both have just come off league defeats, so this is a match both see as a chance to reset their season. Bridlington Town are at home with form that is still decent over their last five: a 3-0 win in the Northern League Division One, followed by a 0-1 home defeat in their latest match. Curzon Ashton, despite a 3-1 win in the Northern Premier League earlier in the month, have lost their last two 1-5 and 0-1, and a defence that was once solid is starting to leak. This game is likely to be an open exchange in midfield, because neither team is in a phase of settled defending. Bridlington Town have a home first-half record of scoring before the break in every one of their last five, while Curzon Ashton often concede in the first half away from home, so the hosts look likely to score first and keep the game closer than the difference in stature would suggest.
