Truro City face Merthyr Town again in an FA Cup quarter-final replay this Tuesday. The tie was forced after a 1-1 draw between the sides just three days earlier on 19 September.
Paul Wotton's side head into the match sitting seventh in the National League South with 14 points from eight games. Their recent form has been mixed, with two wins, two draws and one loss from their last five outings.
The last meeting showed little to separate the two clubs. That stalemate extended Truro's unbeaten run in the competition, but they will be aiming for a more decisive result to secure a semi-final place.
After this cup clash, attention turns back to the league and a tough trip to face leaders Maidstone United on 26 September. The current league standings show Truro five points behind the summit, a gap they will look to close after their cup duties are complete. Check the latest standings for the full picture.
Salisbury FC manager Lloyd Irish has confirmed his side's recent 1-0 win over Truro City. Irish, whose team faces Taunton Town in the FA Cup on Saturday, said Salisbury's victory at Truro on Tuesday night was a great result. Truro City, currently seventh in the National League South with 14 points, lost that home match on 15 September to a goal from Salisbury's J. Hedges.
