Ebbsfleet United have been rewarded with a home tie against Football League opposition in the FA Cup second round.
League 2 Gillingham, meanwhile, have been handed another potentially tricky test, away to Dagenham & Redbridge - if they can overcome AFC Fylde in a first round replay.
National South Ebbsfleet beat FC Halifaxon Saturday in the first round thanks to goals from Toby Edser and Rakish Bingham. Second round opponents Fleetwood are currently 15th in League 1.
Ebbsfleet sit second in National South, a point behind leaders Dartford, but with three games in hand.
Manager Dennis Kutrieb has already voiced concern about a cup run and how it may damage their league challenge
Gillingham threw away a one-goal advantage at National North AFC Fylde on Saturday, heading into the latter stages with the lead thanks to Mikael Mandron’s goal. They were unable to hang on, however, as the non-league side deservedly levelled. That match finished 1-1.
The replay at Priestfield is set to take place on Tuesday, November 15. The winners face a Dagenham side sitting mid-table in the National League.
The second round will be played on the weekend of Saturday, November 26. FA Cup first round winners pocket £41,000 in prize money while second round winners will earn another £67,000.
