The home team is eager to achieve a positive outcome in this edition of the FA Cup, capitalising on the home advantage. Glossop’s form has been inconsistent, with their last 30 games yielding only 3 wins, 4 draws, and 8 losses away; compared to a similar record at home. They arrive here following a home defeat to West Didsbury & Chorlton by (1-2).
Glossop enters this critical match seeking a home victory to secure advancement, as this is a single-elimination clash. Being a part of the Counties Leagues, they finished last season in 16th position, distancing themselves from both the bottom places and promotion contenders. Their home performances have been erratic lately; from the last six home games, they managed just one win, one draw, and four defeats, with five of those matches seeing over 2.5 goals and four games featuring both teams scoring.
