Match Preview

The Eagles travel down to Wadham Lodge for an Emirates FA Cup first round qualifying replay against Walthamstow. Last time out, Bedford drew 0-0 with Stow at the Eyrie – forcing a replay.

It was a tight match last Saturday but neither side could make the breakthrough. Bedford and Walthamstow both feel like they could have won it at any point, but no one provided the clinical finishing.

Bedford remain unbeaten for the season so far and have shown lots of promising signs. The Eagles have won four out of four league games so far as well as winning 1-5 against Mulbarton Wanderers in the Extra Preliminary Round of the Emirates FA Cup.

It was announced recently that Bedford defender Harry Seabrook has departed the club. We wish Harry all the best in his future endeavours.

Walthamstow played well at the Eyrie on Saturday and held their own. They got a draw and will now take the tie to Wadham Lodge, having the home advantage.

On Monday this week, it was announced that the winner of this tie will play Gorleston FC in the second qualifying round. Another interesting Emirates FA Cup tie.

Try to make your way to Walthamstow this Tuesday evening. A crucial match for each side who look to advance to the next round.
