Two midweek fixtures featuring Hellenic League sides with the biggest arguably being Binfield’s FA Cup Preliminary Round replay at Hampshire side Horndean.

The two sides met on Saturday and drew 1-1 courtesy of Josh Howell’s second half equaliser and now make the 104 mile round trip to South Hampshire for the rematch.

Horndean – a village of 12,600, over 4,000 more than Binfield and just eight miles north of Portsmouth, have had a winning start to their Wessex Premier Division campaign winning all three fixtures.

Binfield have a number of absentees for the trip with both Sean Moore and Brad Pagliaroli injured and Jamie McCarthy suspended though Grant Kemp (pictured), Harry Lee and Charley Tuttle have all travelled.

Lying in wait for the winners is a home tie with Cornish side Bodmin Town.

In the Hellenic Premier Division, Windsor have an opportunity to add to their solitary league point when they visit Oxford City Nomads.

The Royalists have yet to register a league victory this campaign but drew 1-1 with Royal Wootton Bassett on Saturday courtesy of a Hayden Clack strike.
