STANWAY ROVERS will host BRAINTREE TOWN in a mouthwatering FA Cup tie later this month – providing they can see off Needham Market tomorrow night.
Stanway will head into their first qualifying round replay against The Marketmen knowing that a home game against National League South side Braintree is the incentive for the winners, following today’s draw.
Rovers drew 0-0 with Needham Market in the original tie between the two sides at the Kingdom Stadium, last weekend.
The winners of tomorrow night’s @EmiratesFACup replay will face @BraintreeTownFC at home in the Second Round Qualifying 🏡
