This weekend The Tudors take on United in the Second Qualifying Round of the FA Trophy.

The Tudors go in to this weekends cup tie on the back of FA Cup defeat, having lost to Sutton United in midweek. However, the squad will be keen to bounce back immediately and carry on the impressive form which has led to the Tudors flying high in the Calor League Premier Division whilst keeping up runs in the FA Cup and FA Trophy.

This is only our second ever meeting with North Greenford United in our clubs history, the other occasion was in the 2004/05 FA Cup, Hemel won 5-1 at home in the first qualifying round.

North Greenford United, of the Calor League Division One Central, have played 19 games in all competitions so far this season – but only 10 of them have been league games. United beat Leighton Town and Aylesbury to progress to this stage of the FA Trophy, while in the FA Cup they made it to the Third Qualifying Round by beating Tring Athletic, Harrow Borough and Clacton in the earlier stages before exiting at the hands of Canvey Island. United’s last league win was back in September, when then beat Dunstable Town 3-1 – their biggest winning margin in the league so far this season. On Wednesday night they lost 3-1 away to Aylesbury United. United’s highest attendance so far this season was 135 for the visit of Harrow Borough in the FA Cup, their average home league attendance this season is 73. United have kept two clean sheets so far this season and have failed to score on three occasions.
