vs Prediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Aveley go into the second qualifying round of the FA Cup on the back of three wins and two defeats in their last five games: the most recent was a 1-2 loss to Leatherhead, preceded by a 4-2 win over Cheshunt and a 2-0 away win at Stanway Rovers; further back another defeat, 0-2 to Lewes, and a 5-1 away win over Three Bridges. Brentwood Town, on the other hand, have managed just one win in their last five matches, surrounded by three defeats: the latest, 1-2, away to Dulwich Hamlet, preceded by a 4-2 win over Concord Rangers, a 0-0 draw also against Concord Rangers, a 0-2 defeat to Carshalton Athletic and a 1-3 loss to Enfield Town. In the head to head record the most recent meeting, in April, ended 4-1 to Brentwood Town, but further back Aveley had drawn 3-3 away at Brentwood, further back a 1-1 draw the previous August, a 3-0 away win in July 2022 and, further back still, a 1-0 win for Aveley in January 2022. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
