Preview: Marine (A)

Warrington Town will gear up for more FA Cup action on Saturday, with a trip to National League North side Marine coming up for the Yellows in third round qualifying. 

Featuring at this stage of the competition for the first time in seven years, as a result of victories against Shildon and South Liverpool in the previous two rounds, Paul Carden's side know that two wins stand between themselves and a place in the first round proper. 

Saturday pits the Yellows against familiar opposition in Marine, having spent time together in both the Northern Premier League and National League North over recent years.

Below, we've compiled everything you need to know ahead of the fixture.

Paul Carden preview

Manager Paul Carden has urged his side to show greater ruthlessness in front of goal as they prepare for Saturday's crunch clash on Merseyside. 

The Yellows were knocked out of the FA Trophy on penalties by Ashton United last time out, despite enjoying more of the ball against their NPL Premier Division rivals. 

Looking ahead to their latest cup outing, Carden says the challenge for his players is to turn their time on the ball into clear-cut sights of goal. 

"When you don't ask questions from the possession that you have, you can get done," he said.

"Ashton United's penalty was the first time they got into our box in the second half last Saturday.

"We had a lot of the ball but didn't have enough where it counted in the final third."

Looking ahead to Saturday's FA Cup test, Carden added: "We need to get back at it.

"We've said it all along, about having your best players available to pick from, that's what gives you the best chance. 

"That's where we've had our success from, and that's what we'll be looking to do."

Team news

The Yellows are expected to welcome back striker Ewan Bange after a recent lay-off. 

Midfielder Lewis Earl is also pushing to start after making his comeback from a quad injury last weekend. 

Zayn Sadiq and Alex McNally returned to training this week and are in contention for selection. 

New signing Harry McHugh could also feature against Marine.
