The draw was released on Tuesday afternoon, although the FA have reminded clubs that - as things stand - these games will be played behind closed doors.

All ties in this round are in midweek which means the likes of Hollands & Blair, Deal, Chatham, Canterbury and Beckenham have awkward journeys to make.

Prize money in the Extra Preliminary Round is £1,125 for the winning teams and £375 for losing sides.

The Preliminary Round takes place on Saturday, September 12, where the winners will bank £1,444 and losing sides pocket £481.

Among those ties, Herne Bay face a tough trip to Hastings United, Ramsgate host Chipstead and Whitstable Town travel to higher-division Carshalton.
