Match Preview

Redditch United are the visitors to Kirkby Road for the Buildbase FA Trophy 2nd Qualifying Round match on Tuesday 12th November. Barwell beat Bromsgrove Sporting 7-2 to reach this round and Redditch beat Corby Town 4-2.

These two sides have faced each other already this season in the league. Barwell ran out 1-0 winners at the TRICO Stadium thanks to a Tolani Omotola goal. Since this game Barwell have both lost and beaten Bromsgrove Sporting and drawn with Hednesford Town. Redditch have lost to Hednesford Town and Kings Langley in the league but have had wins over Corby Town in the FA Trophy and Hednesford Town in the League Cup. The win against Hednesford was some respite for United who had lost 8 successive league matches before that.

Barwell are expected to be unchanged from the recent team line ups with both Brady Hickey and Tolani Omotola looking to add more goals to their tally this season. Redditch have recently signed Tom Rankin from Bromsgrove Sporting and have lost Paul Douglas to Alvechurch. Former Barwell player Kurtis Revan has recently signed for Redditch, joining former loanee Romario Martin in Worcestershire.

The 3rd Qualifying Round will take place on 23rd November with the winners facing a trip to Matlock Town.

The game kicks off at 7.45pm at the UK Flooring Direct Stadium, Kirkby Road, Barwell, LE9 8FQ.
