🔥 Match Preview

Darlo get a break from league football as they prepare to take the short trip to the Neeform Stadium to take on Redcar Town in the second qualifying round of the FA Cup, hoping to create more memories.

The Quakers are looking to respond to a disappointing run of form, most recently a loss away at Marine, where, after taking the lead through a Mark Beck penalty, Marine would produce a comeback to win 2-1.

Away from home this season is where Darlo have found results so far, with two wins including a 1-0 win at Radcliffe and a 3-2 win at Bedford Town in five games, with nine goals scored and 13 conceded for a total of six points.

Darlington’s opponents, Redcar Town, were promoted last season up to the Northern League Division One and find themselves 12th in the league with eight games played, with three wins and two draws for a total of 11 points.

So far this season, Redcar have done well in a new league as well as beat sides like Newcastle Benfield, Bridlington Town and Blyth Spartans in previous rounds of the FA Cup and will be prepared to take on the Quakers in a massive game for the club.

This is the first meeting between the sides, and the tie can be watched live on BBC iPlayer, the BBC Football YouTube channel and the BBC Sport website.
