The tie has been abandoned once back on December 12th and postponed twice since due to a waterlogged Impact Arena playing surface.

Hopefully a better weather forecast will see the game played on Tuesday night.

Reds manager Nicky Law will be without defender Niall Heaton who has a hamstring strain which caused him to miss the 4-1 win at Brackley Town on Saturday and Law will also have to wait for a late fitness check on Andi Thanoj who came off injured in Northamptonshire at the weekend.

Kick-off is 7.45pm and extra time and penalties will be utilised if necessary.

The prize for the winners of the tie is a home game against Long Eaton United in the quarter finals of the competition.
