The Gladiators will begin their Emirates FA Cup campaign with a Preliminary Round trip to either Stafford Rangers or Tividale. The tie is scheduled to take place on Saturday 22nd August, with a 3pm kick-off, as Ryan Cresswell’s side look to begin another exciting FA Cup journey. Stafford Rangers and Tividale will first meet to determine who hosts Matlock in the Preliminary Round.
A week later, Matlock will once again be on the road as we enter the Isuzu FA Trophy. The Gladiators have been drawn away to Lichfield City in the First Qualifying Round, with the tie set to be played on Saturday 29th August and kicking off at 3pm.
Our young Gladiators have also learned their opponents in the FA Youth Cup. Matlock Town’s Under-18s will travel to Quorn AFC in the Preliminary Round, with the fixture due to be played during the week commencing Monday 31st August.
