Salisbury discover possible FA Cup opponents

Tuesday, 3 October 2023 01:00

Salisbury now know who they will face in the fourth and final qualifying round if they can overcome Slough Town in this evening's replay.

During yesterday's FA Cup 4th round draw, Salisbury or Slough Town were drawn to face Ebbsfleet United away.

Ebbsfleet United play in the National League and currently sit in mid-table with a mixed set of results so far; that's two leagues above Salisbury. The home side will be favourites against whichever side progresses.

Salisbury and Slough face each other in their 3rd qualifying round replay after their goalless draw on Saturday, with Salisbury hoping they can repeat the performance that saw them do everything but score against their higher league opponents.

Whites manager Brian Dutton was keen to stress that despite his side's display on Saturday when the whistle blows in the replay, what went before is irrelevant and expects a different sort of game.

Tonight's replay game kicks off at 7:45 pm at Slough Town's Arbour Park.
