13:30, 05 February 2018

Maidstone will go to Leyton Orient in the quarter-finals of the FA Trophy if they win their replay at Gateshead.

Jay Saunders' side make the long trip north on Tuesday after a stoppage-time goal from Jai Reason earned them a 2-2 draw at the Gallagher Stadium on Saturday.

Leyton Orient scored late to win 4-3 at Dover after Whites had come from 3-0 down to level.

Maidstone won 4-0 at Torquay in the first round and beat Heybridge 2-1 in round two.

They haven't gone beyond the third round since 1986/87, when they were eventually beaten by Burton Albion in the quarter-finals.

Meanwhile, Bromley will host Spennymoor or East Thurrock in the last-eight if they win their replay at home to Workington. The first game finished 1-1 in Cumbria.
