Bishop's Cleeve v Woking
FA Cup 2nd Qualifying Round
3pm on Saturday 25th September 2010
The Cards start their FA Cup campaign away to Gloucester side Bishop's Cleeve tomorrow, with Graham Bakers side looking to avoid a Cup slip-up.
WOKING
With Ricky Anane likely to be out with an injury it could see Moses Ademola move back to the right of midfield, and Andy Forbes could be his replacement upfront alongside either Dave Gilroy or Craig Faulconbridge.
Jerome Maledon and Francis Quarm have built up a good partnership in the centre of midfield over the last few games, and the pair will be looking to continue that against The Villagers.
Last season Kent team Hythe Town took Woking to a replay at the same stage, with Ola Sogbanmu coming off the bench to secure the victory on his debut, and the young striker could be looking for a place on the seven-man bench again tomorrow.
Aswad Thomas is likely to return to the left back position following his recent suspension and loan player Chris Bush's departure.
BISHOP'S CLEEVE
The Villagers play in the Zamaretto League Division South & West, and defeated Newport IOW 3-0 in the previous round.
Last season they reached the 3rd Qualifying Round, losing 4-1 to Blue Square South play-off winners Bath City.
Julian Alsop is their main threat in the striking department, the 37 year old forward played over 200 times for nearby league side Cheltenham Town.
