Horsham hosts Torquay in the FA Trophy Round of 128 at The Fusion Aviation Community Stadium. This non-league encounter pits two National League - South sides with contrasting trajectories. Horsham arrive with recent momentum, while Torquay have struggled for consistency and firepower in their last five outings.
Team form
Horsham
Horsham have shown attacking intent across their recent matches, scoring 7 goals in five games at 1.4 per game. Their record reads two wins, two draws and one defeat. Most recently they drew 2-2 away at Ebbsfleet United on 20 October, demonstrating resilience after falling behind. Earlier in August they secured back-to-back wins: 2-0 at home to Hampton & Richmond and 2-1 away at Braintree. Their only loss came 1-2 at home to Farnham Town. Defensively they have conceded 5 goals in five matches (1.0 per game), suggesting reasonable solidity.
Torquay
Torquay's recent form is concerning. They have managed only 3 goals in five games (0.6 per game) while conceding 6 (1.2 per game). Their record shows one win, two draws and two defeats. The single victory came 2-1 away at Tonbridge Angels on 15 August, but since then they have lost 0-2 away at Dagenham & Redbridge and 0-2 away at Farnham Town. A goalless draw at home to Weston-super-Mare and a 1-1 draw away at Hampton & Richmond show they can be difficult to break down, yet their attacking output remains a significant weakness.
Head-to-head
The head-to-head record offers a mixed picture. Torquay have won twice at home (2-0 in March 2026 and 2-0 in December 2024), while Horsham won 2-1 at home in August 2025. The sides drew 1-1 most recently on 8 August 2026. Torquay's home record in this fixture is strong, but this match is at Horsham's ground, where the hosts have shown they can deliver.
Key factors
Horsham's superior goal-scoring rate (1.4 versus 0.6 per game) is the standout metric. They have scored in four of their last five matches and demonstrated the ability to find the net against quality opponents. Torquay's defensive vulnerabilities are evident—they have conceded in four of five recent games. Conversely, Torquay's miserly attacking output raises questions about whether they can trouble Horsham's defence, which has been reasonably solid. The cup format may suit a team seeking to impose themselves early; Horsham's recent form suggests they are better equipped to do so. Torquay will need to be compact and clinical on the counter, but their recent lack of goals is a concern.
Prediction
Horsham hold a slight favourite status based on their superior attacking output, recent form, and home advantage. They have scored more consistently and conceded fewer goals per game than their visitors. Torquay have shown defensive discipline at times but lack the attacking threat to trouble Horsham significantly. The expected goal balance favours the hosts. A low-scoring outcome is plausible given Torquay's defensive approach and limited finishing, but Horsham's attacking prowess should prove decisive.
Horsham are marginally more likely to progress. Back them to win this FA Trophy tie, with a low-scoring scoreline the most probable outcome.
