Worcester City v Kidderminster H.
Worcester City are expecting a big crowd at St George's Lane for their first local derby with Kidderminster Harriers in a major game in 25 years.City won the right to stage Saturday's FA Trophy third round clash against Harriers thanks to Tuesday night's 4-0 second round replay win at Carshalton.
But Carl Heeley's men may now be without former Harriers defender Mark Clyde, who has picked up a knee injury.
Robbie Matthews' recovery from a flu virus gives Harriers a full squad.
Both clubs have had instant success following this month's managerial appointments.
Cash-strapped City have won both their games since Heeley took over as caretaker boss until the end of the season following the sacking of Richard Dryden on 18 January.
Dryden was removed following the 1-1 draw in City's original FA Trophy tie against Carshalton, before helping to inspire last Saturday's 3-1 Blue Square South home win over Weymouth, followed by Tuesday night's goal fest in Surrey.
But Harriers too are in form under new boss Steve Burr, having also hit four goals on Tuesday night in their 4-1 league win over Grays Athletic.
City boss Carl Heeley had a loan spell with Kidderminster Harriers in 2002Burr's side got off to an encouraging start under his command when they twice came from behind to draw 2-2 at Crawley last weekend.
Worcestershire Senior Cup games apart, the two sides last made joint headlines together in a pre-season friendly in August 2006 - a game remembered only for an off-field incident involving Harriers defender Mark Creighton and then City assistant manager Andy Morrison.
And they last met in the FA Trophy in 1970.
One man especially keen to do well is Harriers midfielder Nathan Hayward, who comes from Worcester, and who will have a lot of mates at the game.
"They give me too much stick," he told BBC Hereford & Worcester. "But they will come and support me. They are neutrals, but they keep telling me that Worcester will beat us.
"It's a good time for the club, everybody is chirpy and happy, and the gaffer is quality. He has boosted my confidence as I didn't have many games before.
"He threw me in the deep end on Tuesday, so I am really happy with the way things are going."
City manager Carl Heeley told BBC Hereford and Worcester:
"Steve Burr did a good job at Stalybridge and now has the opportunity to manage at a higher level.
"We are underdogs on Saturday but, while we are still in it, we have just as good a chance as anyone else.
"We don't enter competitions to be also-rans. If we win this game, it's the quarter finals, so who knows?
"We have to be resilient in the first 20 minutes and see off what they have to offer. Then we have enough firepower and physical presence to cause them problems."
Harriers manager Steve Burr told BBC Hereford and Worcester:
"Carl Heeley going in there seems to have got them fired up, winning their last couple of games, and in that respect it will be a tough game for us.
"This one is really set up nicely for the supporters of both teams.
"I would imagine there will be a big crowd there and a lot of local pride at stake.
"When you are involved in a local derby it means so much for the supporters. And we have not played Worcester in a game like this for many years."
