Worthing can win the cup scrap
Match overview
Wealdstone FC welcome Worthing FC to Grosvenor Vale on Saturday for a FA Cup qualification 2026 game that should see a few goals. This is a classic clash of styles, and it should be an exciting game.
- The Stones have lost their two most recent matches and will have been particularly smarting from the 0-6 thrashing they received at home to Yeovil Town last time out, while the Rebels come into this game on the back of two straight wins and in good form.
- The main selection for this matchup has to be the visitors here, Worthing, as they have put together five wins, three draws and just two defeats from their most recent 10 outings in all competitions.
- Worthing can nick this one, but Over 2.5 goals and Both Teams to Score – Yes are the value picks for this one, as this is unlikely to be a cagey cup matchup.
Tactics and prediction
Gary Waddock has set Wealdstone up to be patient in a 4-2-3-1 system that seeks to dominate possession, while Adam Hinshelwood's men will play a much higher tempo version of the same set-up and look to press up, force mistakes and then win the ball back as quickly as possible. The Stones will be keen to slow the game down, but the Rebels will want to put their foot on the gas and push for an opening.
Over 2.5 should be a sure bet
Over 2.5 goals is the top pick for Saturday's clash, as Worthing have won 5 and drawn 3 of their most recent 10 games, while Wealdstone have won 1, drawn 1 and lost 3 of their most recent 5.
Both Teams to Score – Yes will be added into the top bet, as the visitors have shipped just 8 goals across their 5 away fixtures in all of the current campaigns at an average of 1.60 goals per game, while the hosts have let in 12 in 5 home games at an average of 2.40. Worthing to win in the exact score market, as the hosts will still be reeling from their 0-6 home defeat to Yeovil last time out and the fact that Worthing beat them 1-0 at home 7 weeks ago in National League 2026/2027 is also a factor.
