Carterton currently sit 14th in Division One but come into the tie full of confidence, having won each of their last five competitive games across all competitions. That run includes league victories over Wellington and Malmesbury Victoria, plus cup successes against Redditch Borough and Kidlington Development, with 16 goals scored in that time.

Finley James Baker, Kieran Day and Zach Scott have been among the goals this season, providing Carterton with a balanced attacking threat.

For Pershore, attention shifts back to cup football after last weekend’s 1–1 draw with Royal Wootton Bassett in the league, when Cal Harper struck late to earn a point. They will be hoping to build on that momentum and progress to the last sixteen of the competition.

With both sides in good form, it promises to be another entertaining cup tie as Pershore look to progress and return home with a place in the next round.
