Match Preview
Grantham Town will host Newark Town in an intriguing FA Cup clash at South Kesteven Stadium on Saturday. Grantham comes into this match with a mixed bag of form, having won three of their last five fixtures, while Newark Town has struggled, managing just one win in their last five outings. This disparity in momentum could play a crucial role, as Grantham seeks to leverage their home advantage and build on their recent successes.
Historically, the head-to-head record favours Grantham, with only one away win for Newark in their last ten encounters. Interestingly, matches between these two have often been low-scoring, with only one instance of over 2.5 goals in their last ten meetings. Given Newark's recent struggles in front of goal, the match may hinge on Grantham's ability to convert their chances. If they can maintain their attacking form and exploit Newark's defensive vulnerabilities, Grantham could well progress to the next round of the FA Cup.
