Darlington (H) F.A. Cup First Round Replay Preview...

The Cobblers go into tonight’s F.A. Cup First Round Replay with Darlington waiting on the fitness of Poul Hubertz and definitely without Alex Russell and Guy Branston. Stuart Gray will be hoping to get back to winning ways after three defeats and the cup draw in the last four games.

Hubertz must wait for the results on an Achilles strain before knowing whether he can play a part while Russell and Branston are both ineligible for the game due to terms in their loan contracts. Branston can play should we make it to Round Two but must sit out tonight. Mark Hughes will return from suspension to join Liam Dolman at the back.

Darlington are without loan players Ritchie Foran, Ian Miller and Joe Colbeck but Pawell Abbott should play alongside Tommy Wright up front.

The winners of tonight’s replay will take on Walsall at home in Round two on December 1st.
