This round of the FA Cup sees Tonbridge Angels host Torquay United, two teams both in National League South, but recent meetings have consistently gone the visitors' way, especially the last one where Torquay came away with a 2-1 win, and before that they also won at home. This time it's a cup game, which differs from the league in that there are no points to collect; whoever loses is out immediately. Tonbridge Angels just lost their latest league match, but before that they had just come through the previous round with a 2-1 win in the cup, while Torquay United also just lost in the league, but before that they too had just won 2-1 in the cup. Both therefore come in similar shape: just stumbled in the league but with a recent cup win to lift them. The game should be open and end-to-end from the start, because both teams score well late in matches. If Tonbridge Angels get the first goal with the home crowd behind them, the game could turn into the hosts sitting back and waiting to counter, while Torquay United will have to push forward, which will open up space for the game to finish with a scoreline that isn't too far apart.
