Gary Whild is keen for FA Trophy success with Redditch

Redditch United boss Gary Whild is hopeful that his side will progress in the FA Trophy this weekend.

The Reds face Unibond League side Guiseley without cup-tied Matt Blair.

"We had a nice run against Kettering in the FA Cup, so there's no reason why we can't get a result on Saturday," Whild told BBC Hereford and Worcester.

"The FA Trophy is a massive competition for non-league teams and we've had runs in it in the past and it would be nice to get through."

Whild expects a similar game to the previous round, when his side defeated Leigh Genesis 1-0.

"That was a tough game we managed to come through, so hopefully we'll get another similar result this time but if we're not ready for the challenge then we're likely to come unstuck," he added.

"It's going to be a difficult game and we'll have to be at our best to get a result out there."
