Truro City aim to bounce back from a cup defeat when they travel to Hampton & Richmond in the National League South this Saturday. The White Tigers sit fifth in the table with 21 points from 11 games, just four points behind leaders Maidstone United. Their record of six wins, three draws and two losses has them well placed in the promotion race.
Their recent form has been mixed. A 1-0 loss away to Sutton United in the FA Cup last Friday was a setback, but it followed a strong 3-0 win over Birmingham City U21 in the National League Cup. Earlier in October, they secured a 2-1 league victory at Braintree and a 4-0 FA Cup triumph over Cirencester Town at home. Looking at their last five matches across all competitions, the sequence reads three wins, one draw and one loss.
Upcoming fixture details
Saturday’s match at Hampton & Richmond kicks off at 3pm. The hosts are currently 22nd in the table, making this a key opportunity for Truro to add points. This fixture takes place on Saturday 24 October.
