Lymington & New Milton will attempt to reach the FA Cup first round for the first in the club's history when Glenn Cockerill's Woking visit Fawcetts Field.
The Linnets will be playing in the FA Cup's fourth qualifying round for the third time and a 1,000-plus crowd has been catered for as the competition's sole Wessex League representatives prepare to take on ex-Saints Cockerill's Conference giants.
Chairman John Mills said: "We played Aldershot in the FA Cup here a few years ago and had a record crowd of around 1,560, but that was before Aldershot were in the Conference so this is the biggest game in our history, without doubt.
"We're expecting Woking to bring between 250 and 500 fans with them and we're hoping to get plenty of support from the locals so we could have a crowd of around 700 - and we've got everything in place for a four-figure crowd. We've employed extra stewards and a lot of work has been done behind the scenes."
Lymington will take on Woking on the back of a run of TEN successive wins, including an 8-0 demolition of Hamble ASSC last week. But manager Ian Robinson is without captain Jimmy Sheppard and target man Michael Jackson, who are both suspended, while Darren Powell, the new signing from Winchester City, is cup-tied.
Robinson knows that the odds are stacked firmly in favour of Woking.
"We know we've got to play at our maximum and hope that they have an off day," said Robinson, who will hand the captain's arm band to Paul Towler in the absence of Sheppard.
"We'll have to play as well as we've done all season but if they aren't below par I don't see us standing much of a chance. They're four divisions better than us and their players are more accomplished, as well as being fitter, so on paper they should win by a canter."
Robinson believes that his side will have to make the most of home advantage.
"I don't think they'll fancy coming down here, they won't be turned on by our facilities, because they're used to playing against ex-league sides like Barnet and York. It will probably come down to whether they're professional enough to get on with the job but I can't see them being on the button so we have to make the most of our chance.
"We'll only get one, we need to win here to make the first round, but we're not going to make any special arrangements for them. We've only had one chance to watch them. They're very dour and workmanlike but well organised and on paper we shouldn't live with them."
Lymington & New Milton's coffers will receive a £10,000 boost if they produce a shock. But Woking, who famously beat West Brom 4-2 in the FA Cup first round at the Hawthorns in 1991, are just as keen to progress.
Chairman Chris Ingram said: "One of the main reasons Woking got into financial trouble was because they budgeted on the assumption that cup runs would continue. But there's more prize money for each round these days and of course the further you go the more TV money there is at stake."
