PLYMOUTH, England (Interstat) — Plymouth Parkway will look to build on its winning start in the FA Trophy when it hosts Poole Town FC in a preliminary round match Saturday.

Parkway (1-0-0 FA Trophy) advanced with a 3-2 victory over Broxbourne Borough on Oct. 4. That result, however, is the club’s only win across all competitions this season, as it fell 4-0 to Frome Town in its season opener on Aug. 30, giving it an overall record of 1-1-0.

Poole Town (0-0-0 FA Trophy) enters the competition for the first time this season. The Dolphins have yet to play a competitive match in the 2025-26 campaign across any competition, making their form a mystery.

The visitors will be tasked with shutting down a Plymouth attack that showed potency in its last outing. The home side, however, will be wary of its defense after conceding twice in its Trophy victory.

According to the Interstat game simulator, Poole Town is projected to secure a narrow 1-0 victory on the road.

The FA Trophy is England’s premier knockout competition for clubs in the non-league system, below the fully professional English Football League. The winner of Saturday’s single-elimination match at Bolitho Park will advance to the next round.
