Worthing FC and Horsham FC head into this weekend’s cup ties with the hope of causing an upset and a place in Monday evening’s draw.

Both Sussex clubs face full time professional teams from League Two albeit at different ends of the table but the Rebels and the Hornets will be confident of causing a surprise or two.

Worthing FC v Morecambe FC.

This is the first time these two teams have ever faced each other and the match will be played at the fantastic newly developed Sussex Transport Community Stadium.

The Shrimps have had a tough start to their League Two campaign and are currently in last place with only one win in 14 games and three defeats in a row

The Rebels are only are two points off the top of the National League South table after 14 games and thrashed Plymouth Parkway in the previous FA Cup round 4-0 in Devon.

It will be a fantastic occasion with over 2000 fans expected at the match. Worthing will believe they have a great opportunity to put themselves in the hat for the second round of the competition.

Chesterfield FC v Horsham FC

This will be an extremely tough match for the Hornets. The Spireites have appeared in the third round of the competition for the last three years, most recently going head-to-head with Watford in January.

Chesterfield have had a mixed league campaign so far but currently sit in the play-off places six points behind leaders Port Vale. They were promoted to League Two last season after winning the National League, with their exceptional manager Paul Cook.

They average around 9000 fans at their home games at the SMH Group Stadium, and the Lardy Boys from Horsham will travel en masse and make themselves heard.

The Hornets are again playing catch up with their league campaign but as always they make the FA Cup an event to celebrate. After beating Dorking Wanderers (easy!) they will be flying high but the manager Dom Di Paola will know this is going to be an almighty battle against a very decent side, Horsham will do their best to beat the Spireites.

Just for good measure and coincidence Morecambe hosted Chesterfield last weekend with the visitors running out 5-2 winners to extend their unbeaten run to eight matches.
