Horbury Town vs Liversedge
HORBURY, West Yorkshire (Interstat) — A West Riding County Cup clash on Saturday pits two sides coming off high-scoring draws when Horbury Town hosts Liversedge at Slazengers Sports Complex.
The fixture, set for Jan. 10, 2026, features teams eager to convert recent stalemates into a decisive victory and advance in the county competition.
Horbury Town heads into the match following a dramatic 4-4 draw on the road against Pickering Town this past Tuesday. That result highlighted an attack capable of producing goals in bunches. Their only other recorded result this season was a 0-0 home draw with Wombwell Town in early August.
Visiting Liversedge also comes in off a Tuesday draw, having finished 1-1 at Thackley. The shared points on the road, however, may offer a different kind of momentum as they prepare for another away trip.
Statistical projections heavily favor the home side. According to Interstat’s ELO rating system, Horbury Town carries a 65.20 percent probability of winning the match. The organization’s game simulator forecasts an offensive showcase, predicting a 4-2 victory for Horbury Town.
If the simulation proves accurate, it would continue a trend of high-scoring affairs for Horbury, which has seen eight total goals in its last outing alone. Liversedge’s defense will be tasked with disrupting that rhythm.
The setting adds a local derby atmosphere to the cup tie. The Slazengers Sports Complex in Horbury, West Yorkshire, is expected to draw a crowd anticipating a lively contest between two sides demonstrating recent form in front of goal.
Kickoff is scheduled for Saturday afternoon, with a place in the next round of the ENG West Riding County Cup at stake.
