Match Preview
As Leatherhead prepares to face Westfield in the FA Cup on Saturday, both teams come into the match with contrasting recent form. Leatherhead has experienced a mixed bag, with two wins and three losses in their last five outings, while Westfield arrives with a more consistent performance, securing three wins and two losses. This difference in form could play a pivotal role in the match, particularly as Leatherhead will be looking to leverage home advantage at Fetcham Grove.
Historically, the head-to-head record between these sides suggests a lack of scoring, with the last ten encounters yielding no draws and only one away win for Westfield. Additionally, none of those matches have seen over 2.5 goals or both teams scoring, indicating a tendency for tight contests. Given this context, Leatherhead will need to find a way to break through Westfield’s defence if they hope to progress in the cup, while Westfield will aim to maintain their solid form and exploit any defensive lapses from the hosts.
