FA VASE SECOND QUALIFYING ROUND - THIS WEEKEND

The Road To Wembley continues this weekend with the Buildbase FA Vase Second Qualifying Round taking place. There are two interesting local games tonight as Spartan South Midlands League Division One side New Salamis entertain Towers Hamlets of the Essex Senior League at Donkey Lane and Broadfields United of the SSMFL Premier welcome Hanworth Villa of the Combined Counties Premier Division. 

New Salamis have made a good start to life at Step Six of the non-league ladder winning five of their eight games played so far. Tower Hamlets form has been somewhat up and down with a great 1-2 win at Takeley in the Gordon Brastead Memorial Trophy and a 2-1 league vicory against Enfield FC coupled with a 1-5 home defeat against Redbridge. They lost 2-1 at Cockfosters in their last game. 

Could there be a shock on the cards at the Queen Elizabeth II Stadium tonight? 

FIXTURES 
(featuring local ESL, SSMFL, Thurlow Nunn D1S and Middlesex County clubs) 
Saturday
AFC Hayes v London Tigers
Aylesbury Vale Dynamos v Rugby Borough
Bedford v Bedfont & Feltham
Buckingham Athletic v Hillingdon FC
Hillingdon FC of the Middlesex County League Premier Division travel to play Buckingham Athletic - they beat Rayners Lane 5-1 in the last round and have won all three of their league games played so far with only defeat against Clapton CFC in the Premier Division Cup last weekend. Francesco Altomare scored a hat-trick on the Rayners Lane game. 
Colney Heath v Haverhill Rovers
Crawley Green v Winslow United
Enfield FC v Enfield Borough
An interesting Enfield derby takes place at the Pro Kit Stadium in Bishop's Stortford where the home side currently ground share. It's Step Five v Step Six and Borough Chairman Marvin Walker played for the old Enfield FC club in the early 2000s so this is likely to be a keenly contested tie on the pitch.  
FC Broxbourne Borough v Wivenhoe Town
FC Clacton v Redbridge 
Frenford v Hashtag United
Harborough Town v Hillingdon Borough
Harefield United v Rothwell Corinthian
Langford v Hackney Wick
London Colney v Baldock Town

The home side have made a great start to their Thurlow Nunn First Division South season winning all four of their league games played so far and beating Harwich and Parkeston in the last round. The visitors thrashed Step Five ESL side Clapton FC in the last round so will be in a confident mood going into this one. They have also won games 7-0 and 6-2 this season but lost 1-0 at Springfield last time out. 
Lutterworth Town v Amersham Town
Milton Keynes Robins v Fleet Spurs
North Greenford United v Oxhey Jets
Stanway Rovers v Wodson Park
