Upcoming FA Cup 4^th Qualifying Round – Preview and Predictions

Farnham Town vs Sutton United

Farnham Town welcomes Sutton United on October 11, 2025. This match will occur at 07:30 a.m. ET at the Memorial Ground, Farnham, giving Farnham a home advantage.

Prediction

Farnham Town’s winning ratio is 60% in its last ten matches. It has never conceded much. Farnham has won six times and drawn four matches. They have never lost in their previous ten games. Moreover, they average 2.8 goals per match across all formats. This shows their solid form, good defense, and scoring potential. If we look at Sutton United, we can see their poor form. Sutton United had won only once in their last ten matches. They never scored many goals either. Sutton United scored 11 goals in total in their previous ten games across all formats. With three draws and six losses, Sutton United has a poor current form, having no power to sustain well-rounded teams. Moreover, Farnham Town gets a home advantage this time. Coupled with their quality, the home advantage gives them an advantage. Hence, Farnham Town will easily win this FA Cup match.

Hemel Hempstead vs Yeovil Town

Hemel Hempstead and Yeovil Town will clash in the upcoming English Football Association Cup qualifying round. The game is scheduled for October 11, 2025, at Vauxhall Ground at 10:00 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Hemel Hempstead arrives with a win over Hereford after an initial draw. They show good current form, scoring around 16 goals over their last ten matches. Conversely, they have never conceded much, allowing only six goals inside their net. Hempstead shows a reasonable success rate with six wins, three draws, and one defeat out of their previous ten matches. Moreover, they are good at both home and away matches. In contrast, Yeovil Town FC is currently very poor at defense. They show an average scoring of 1.5 goals per game for their last ten matches. Yeovil Town concedes more than they score, allowing 16 goals against them. Their last five games show five wins and five losses. Additionally, their away form is mixed, which struggles with inconsistency. Overall, Hemel Hempstead looks more promising when compared with Yeovil’s below-average form. Hence, Hempstead will win in the upcoming FA Cup fixture.

Southport FC vs FC Halifax Town

Southport FC welcomes FC Halifax Town in the upcoming FA Cup clash on October 11, 2025. This match will begin at Haig Avenue at 10:00 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Southport FC is less potent than C Halifax Town in every aspect. They have won only one match out of their last ten games across all formats. Southport FC struggles to find the net with seven defeats and two draws. Their inconsistent form is their biggest obstacle. Southport FC’s scores are significantly lower than the goals they conceded. They have a poor home form against strong clubs. On the other hand, we have FC Halifax Town with a better overall form. They have an average of 1.9 goals, whereas Southport has 1.1. Their six wins and one loss indicate their consistency across all matches. They also have a good away form, upsetting the hosts. However, they have defensive errors that Southport could exploit. Moreover, the home advantage might support Southport FC. However, Halifax’s overall form and resilience will enable them to beat Southport FC in this FA Cup fixture. 

Southend United vs Folkestone Invicta

Southend United and Folkestone Invicta will engage in the upcoming FA Cup match on October 11, 2025. This match begins at 10:00 a.m. ET at Roots Hall.

Prediction

Southend United is currently inconsistent. They have won only four matches in their previous ten fixtures, and their outcomes are mixed and unreliable. Southend have also lost three games and drawn three. Offensively, they average 1.5 goals per match lately. Despite their good offense, their defensive side is weak, conceding 12 goals in ten games. Lastly, they have an average home and away form. In contrast, Folkestone Invicta roars with an eccentric form. They have won in 9 out of 10 matches recently across all formats. This shows their great degree of consistency. Their offense is firm and currently averages at 2.8 goals per match. Folkestone also concedes only lower goals, and the ratio is 28:11. This indicates their balanced offense and defense. Comparatively, Folkestone United is well-rounded than Southend United. In summary, Invicta has a solid chance to upset Southend United in this FA Cup match.

Eastbourne Borough vs Boreham Wood

Eastbourne Borough FC will welcome Boreham Wood FC in the upcoming FA Cup match. This clash will occur at Priory Lane Stadium on October 11, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Eastbourne Borough has won twice and drawn four times in its last ten matches. Regarding consistency, Eastbourne Borough is unreliable with mixed outcomes. Their attacking front literally struggles to score, as they average 1 goal per match. This is significantly low compared with Boreham Wood’s 1.8 goals per match. But Eastbourne Borough has a good defense. They have conceded around eight goals in their last ten games, whereas Wood conceded seven. At the same time, Bournemouth’s defense is elite as they have won multiple clean sheets in the same span. In terms of outcomes, Boreham Wood has a 70% winning ratio. Additionally, Eastbourne gets a home advantage this time. Regarding head-to-head records, both teams have a similar number of wins, indicating a tight contest. Yet, Boreham Wood’s current status gives them a tactical edge. Hence, Boreham Wood is the favorite to win in this upcoming FA Cup clash.

Altrincham FC vs Harborough Town FC

Harborough Town FC will visit Altrincham FC in the upcoming FA Cup match on October 11, 2025. This match will be held at Moss Lane at 10:00 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Altrincham has a 30 percent winning chance, which is evident in their last ten matches. They are prone to losing about six of their previous ten games decisively. Altrincham struggles both offensively and defensively. Netting only 12 goals, they have conceded around 14 goals. It shows their weak defensive side. Moreover, they appear weak even at home matches. At least, they tend to draw matches at home if not win. Conversely, Harborough Town FC has a better form than Altrincham. They have won in six games and drawn three with a single narrow defeat in the same span. When compared with Altrincham, their score generation is more consistent. They have an average of 2 goals per match. Harborough concedes very little compared to the number of goals they score, with a ratio of 5:2. Altrincham may capitalize on home crowd support. Still, Harborough Town’s quality will outperform Altrincham’s.

Gainsborough Trinity vs Hartlepool

Gainsborough Trinity FC and Hartlepool United will engage in a fierce FA Cup battle on October 11, 2025. The match will begin at 10:00 a.m. ET at The Northolme Stadium.

Prediction

Gainsborough Trinity has won eight out of its last ten matches. Its strategy involves restricting its opponents and scoring sparsely. Although they have only 1.5 goals per match, they tighten their defenses to contain them. They also have occasional clean-sheet victories. With a decent attacking form, Trinity’s defense is top-tier. Concisely, Gainsborough Trinity brings a competitive team form against Hartlepool. On the other hand, Hartlepool United has a below-average record. They won only once in their last ten matches, with five draws and four losses. Hartlepool have barely scored in their previous ten games, with only six goals in total. However, their defense looks promising, as they either draw with or without goals. But Gainsborough’s offense will surely break Hartlepool’s defense. In return, Hartlepool’s offense will struggle to get even. Consequently, Gainsborough Trinity will easily win Hartlepool United in this FA Cup fixture.

Rochdale vs York City

Rochdale AFC will host the FA Cup 4^th qualifying round, welcoming York City FC on October 11, 2025. This match will be held at Crown Oil Arena, starting at 10:00 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Rochdale A.F.C. is currently the number one club in the National League. They have a strong winning prospect, with a recent 70% winning ratio. Rochdale got frequent clean sheet victories at home. This includes their recent win against Braintree Town. Rochdale appears firmer in the upcoming FA Cup qualifiers, combined with their home advantage. Similarly, York City is currently in reasonable form. They have won five matches and drawn three in their last ten games. Offensively, they have the same average goals as Rochdale. However, Rochdale concedes fewer goals than York City. In addition, York City’s recent matches have yielded mixed outcomes with a lesser tendency for a decisive win. Above all, Rochdale arrives with a home advantage. This single aspect strengthens Rockdale’s winning probability for this FA Cup match.

Carlisle United vs Boston United

Carlisle United FC will face Boston United FC in the FA Cup 4th qualifying round on October 11, 2025. The game begins at 10:00 a.m. ET at Carlisle’s home venue, Brunton Park.

Prediction

Carlisle United’s last ten matches indicate elite form. They have a 70 percent winning ratio and consistent scoring throughout. Their squad finds the net in every match, scoring an average of 1.8 goals per match. Carlisle is good at both home and away matches. Moreover, they have frequent clean-sheet wins. In contrast, Boston United has a low winning chance. They have won only in three matches out of the last ten. Boston United has relatively low scoring power with an average of 1.1 goals. Mainly, their defense is extremely weak. They concede more than they score. Carlisle’s overall form is comparatively better than Boston United’s. Besides, they get a home advantage, giving them a psychological edge. This further complicates Boston United’s prospects against Carlisle’s powerful home record. Therefore, Carlisle United will win in the upcoming FA Cup clash against Boston United.

Worthing vs Forest Green

Worthing F.C. and Forest Green Rovers F.C. will meet in the upcoming FA Cup 4^th qualifying round. This match unfolds at Sussex Transport Community Stadium on October 13, 2025, at 02:30 p.m. ET.

They have scored an average of two goals per game in their last ten matches. However, they have conceded around half their goals. They show a 40% winning ratio with three draws and three losses. Additionally, Worthing gets a home advantage this time. Conversely, Forest Green Rovers F.C. shows more consistency. They won about five matches, drew four, and lost one. But their scoring potential is significantly lower than Worthing’s. Worthing has scored about eleven goals and conceded five in the last ten matches. Moreover, they have a good away form, having won opponents on the road. Although they have consistent outcomes, their overall offensive production is low. Despite having a good away form and defense, Worthing’s attacking side will dominate. Therefore, Worthing will conquer this Football Association Cup match.
