In this round of the FA Cup, Sheppey United host Chertsey Town at home. Both teams arrive at this point having narrowly come through the previous round, and there are no league points at stake here. Only progression to the next round matters. Sheppey United just won 1-0 in the FA Cup after previously losing 0-3 in another cup competition, while Chertsey Town just lost 1-3 in the league but before that won 3-2 in the FA Cup and scored as many as 5-0 in the league in mid-September. In their own league, Chertsey Town have scored 20 and conceded 15 from 9 matches. Chertsey Town are likely to be the side that has to push forward more, because Sheppey United are playing at home and in a cup tie like this usually choose to sit deep as a base first, then wait for the chance to counter or play from set pieces. If Sheppey United can handle the early attacking spell and avoid conceding early, the game is likely to stretch out until the closing stages, where the hosts have a chance to score from a mistake by the visitors.
