Match Preview

Harlow Town travel to Bath City for the FA Cup 3rd Round Qualifying replay.

A narrowly contested 2-2 draw at the weekend couldn’t separate the two sides, and with a frantic final 20 minutes both teams went away feeling that they could have taken the win. If 90 minutes can’t separate the sides this time out, extra-time and a penalty shootout beckons.

Cup-tied Shane Stamp misses the game, while Ibrahima Sonko is a doubt after a clash of heads with striker Nick McCootie forced the experienced defender off the field in the last match. Sonko required thirteen stitches in a nasty head-wound, and it will be touch-and-go whether he can feature in the replay.

The draw for the 4th Qualifying round took place on Monday 12th October, and the victors know that they will travel away to National League side Braintree Town on 24th October. The Hawks will be keen to seal their place in an Essex derby, while Bath City may not relish another trip back to Essex.

For travelling fans, the stadium address is:

Kick off is at 7:45pm, on Tuesday 13th October 2015.
