LONDON (Interstat) — An in-form Sittingbourne side will look to continue its perfect FA Trophy run against an Ebbsfleet United FC squad playing its first competitive match of the season when the clubs meet Saturday.

The fifth-round fixture, scheduled for Stonebridge Road, pits a red-hot Sittingbourne squad against an Ebbsfleet team whose 2025 campaign has yet to begin. Sittingbourne enters the contest with a 4-0 record in the FA Trophy and a 6-1 mark across all competitions.

Sittingbourne is riding a wave of momentum, coming off a 2-1 victory over Cray Valley Paper Mills FC on Oct. 25. Their offense has been potent, including a 6-1 thrashing of Crowborough Athletic in September.

Ebbsfleet United, meanwhile, has no recorded competitive results for the 2025 season, listing an 0-0 record both in the FA Trophy and in all competitions. Their last known match data is from 1970, indicating a significant lack of recent game action.

According to the Interstat game simulator, Sittingbourne is projected to emerge with a narrow 1-0 victory. The matchup will test Sittingbourne’s high-scoring form against an Ebbsfleet squad whose current form is a complete unknown.
