This FA Cup round brings Wealdstone to host Worthing in a game where both sides have just come off league matches in very different moods. Wealdstone were just thrashed 0-6 in their latest league game, while Worthing also just won 5-0 in the league, but they also just lost in the League Cup in mid-month. Wealdstone are in a downward spell in their own league, losing 2 in a row and winless in 3. The defence is clearly a problem when you look at the number of goals conceded in the league. Worthing, meanwhile, are in good league form, winning 3 of their last 5, but their defence is not especially tight either, with an average conceded per game similar to what they score. Cup games like this tend to be more open than league games, because neither side has points to protect. If Wealdstone get the first goal with the home crowd behind them, the game is likely to turn into one where Worthing have to push up and attack, which will open space for the hosts to counter more comfortably, and there is a chance the game ends without a home defeat at this ground.
