FA Trophy third round draw

13:20, 15 January 2018

Dover Athletic will host Leyton Orient in one of the ties of the FA Trophy third round.

Whites beat Marine 4-3 on Saturday and their reward is another home game, this time against their National League rivals - now managed by ex-Gills boss Justin Edinburgh.

Maidstone United will also be at home to National League opposition after being drawn against Gateshead or Boreham Wood.

Those two sides meet in a replay on Tuesday night after drawing 3-3 in the north-east, while Stones are safely through thanks to a 2-1 win over Heybridge Swifts at the weekend.

A trip to Wealdstone of National League South awaits Ebbsfleet United if they win their replay at Warrington.

Fleet trailed the Evo-Stik League side in stoppage-time at Stonebridge Road on Saturday before Sean Shields struck to earn them a 1-1 draw.

The ties will be played on Saturday, February 3.
