Grimsby Team News

Grimsby has already tasted the sweetness of unexpected success in the FA Cup with a remarkable journey to the quarter-finals last year. However, their aspirations for the 2023-24 season were nearly dashed in the first round when Scott Davies’ free-kick found the net. Slough resiliently held their ground until the dying moments, but a goal from Danny Rose in the 75th minute prevented the Rebels from securing a direct spot in the second round. The team, now led by Shaun Pearson and Ben Davies, who took charge at the end of October succeeding Paul Hurst, halted a five-game losing streak, presenting themselves with an opportunity for redemption in front of their home fans.

The reversal of fortunes and the avoidance of defeat against Slough might be the catalyst Grimsby needed to reshape their season. This belief is reinforced by their comeback from a first-half deficit to triumph over Morecambe 3-2 in an exhilarating League Two clash on Saturday, with Rose, Kieran Green, and Rekiel Pyke finding the net.

Having secured their first home victory since October 3, Grimsby is now determined to steer clear of a potential fourth FA Cup first-round exit in the last five seasons. One of these exits occurred in a replay against Newport County in 2019-20. Interestingly, the last team to defeat them at home in the FA Cup was Oxford United in 2014. Should they advance, a chance for revenge against Oxford in the second round awaits Grimsby, but first, they must confront an inspired Slough side, aspiring to match their best-ever performance in England’s most prestigious cup competition.

Similar to numerous teams nationwide, Grimsby has been affected by international call-ups, with Otis Khan representing Pakistan, Kamil Conteh for Sierra Leone, and Abo Eisa for Sudan. Right-back Michee Efete was absent in the Morecambe match due to an injury sustained in the initial draw with Slough, possibly necessitating Toby Mullarkey to fill that position once again.

Slough Team News

The modest Slough side has previously advanced to the FA Cup’s second round on four occasions, achieving this feat in consecutive seasons (2017-18 and 2018-19), but falling short against Rochdale and Gillingham. Familiar with replays, Ben Davies’ team required additional matches to overcome Salisbury and Ebbsfleet United in the qualifiers, with both victories secured in front of their home supporters at Arbor Park. Notably, in eight prior FA Cup away encounters against teams from League Two or higher, Slough has yet to secure a victory.

The lead-up to Tuesday’s match has been marked by considerable unpredictability for the National League outfit. They showcased their prowess by defeating Truro City 4-0 midweek, only to experience a 4-3 defeat to Welling United, marking their second loss in the last 15 games.

Despite infrequent defeats for Slough, the Rebels find themselves in a challenging position, being winless in six successive away games due to a series of defensive struggles. While scoring an impressive 12 goals, Davies’ side conceded 15 goals during this period.

Slough encountered an injury setback with 22-year-old midfielder Leon Chambers-Parillon during the draw with Grimsby. However, the key player has successfully undergone a medical assessment and is expected to be fit to contribute in the midfield in this upcoming fixture. The away side had to part ways with striker Tom McElroy, who moved to Beaconsfield Town earlier this month, intensifying the offensive responsibilities of Bromley loanee George Alexander, Slough’s leading scorer with five goals in the current championship.
