Weston-super-Mare are set to make FA Cup history once again as they face Grimsby Town this Saturday. The Seagulls, having reached the third round of the competition for the first time ever, aim to push even further against their League Two opponents.
Although the fixture against the Mariners may not be the high-profile match Weston hoped for, it represents a realistic opportunity for the National League South side to advance. Grimsby Town, currently 12th in League Two under David Artell, comes into the tie on the back of consecutive wins. The Mariners have struggled somewhat this season but made headlines by knocking out Manchester United on penalties in the EFL Cup, so they will be determined to avoid being the FA Cup giant-killers this weekend.
The match kicks off at 5:45 pm on Saturday, January 10, and will be broadcast live on TNT Sports 5 and streaming platform Discovery+. It is one of 22 FA Cup matches televised this weekend, offering fans plenty of thrilling football action.
