Derbyshire clubs in FA Cup clash

Alfreton Town take on Ilkeston Town in the first ever FA Cup meeting between the two clubs on Saturday.

The third qualifying round tie will be played at the Impact Arena.

Alfreton manager Nicky Law told BBC Radio Derby: "It's a big fixture for both clubs and we're hoping the crowd can edge up to 800."

Ilkeston Town manager David Holdsworth said: "We certainly will be underdogs on the day but we're going to treat it as a home game."

Holdsworth added: "We're having to pit our wits against a team and a manager with great experience and it will be a tough job."
