EFL Rewards On Offer On A Big Night Of FA Cup Action

The fourth qualifying round replays have a lot riding on them with the first round tantalisingly close as the pressure was turned up after Sunday’s draw.

A trip to League One Bristol Rovers awaits Chelmsford City if they can get the better of Whitby at the second attempt.

If your aim is purely progress, then a tie against a side from a few league lower is always a good carrot. Ramsgate lie in wait for either Hemel Hempstead Town or Woking after a cagey draw at Vauxhall Road on Saturday.

It was anything but that as Aveley produced an incredible display to stay in the FA Cup as they pegged Barnet back - have Danny Scopes’ side got enough in the tank to finish the job at The Hive with the Bees so strong at home?

It also finished 2-2 as Ebbsfleet United and Slough Town showed the good and the bad for both their mixed starts to the new season. The winners of the Berkshire battle face Grimsby Town at home in the next round.

York City know many will have their long trip to Needham Market down as a potential upset after a weekend full of surprises and Neal Ardley says they’ll have to be a lot better than the original 0-0 draw to win through. It’s a trip to Chester for whoever goes through.

There’s EFL opposition in the form of Forest Green Rovers for either Scarborough Athletic or Oxford City.

Maidstone United will be watching on with interest to see who comes out on top as Chesham United meet Braintree Town with the victor next up for the Stones after Levi Amantchi inspired their impressive win at Torquay United.
