Ebbsfleet United have been drawn away to Vanarama National League South rivals Chelmsford City in the second qualifying round of the FA Cup.

The draw, which was made on Monday lunchtime, paired league leaders Fleet with a City side sitting eighth in the division, one point outside the play-offs.

Dartford, who reached the second round proper last season, will host Uxbridge of Southern League Division 1 Central, whose league rivals Potters Bar are set to welcome winless Margate.

A home game awaits Maidstone United - conquerors of Stevenage last season - with the winners of the replay between South Park and Leatherhead bound for the Gallagher Stadium.

In only their second FA Cup campaign, Phoenix Sports have already seen off Guernsey and Lewes and their reward for reaching this stage is a home game against AFC Hornchurch.

Herne Bay, who won 3-1 at Rochester on Saturday, will entertain Ryman League Division 1 South rivals Worthing at Winch's Field.

The other Kent clubs left in the competition face midweek replays after drawing their ties.

Folkestone Invicta and Tonbridge Angels meet at the Fullicks Stadium for the right to travel to Leiston, while the winners of Deal Town's replay against Whitstable Town will also be away, to St Albans City.

If Sittingbourne can find a way past Met Police at the second attempt, they'll be back at Woodstock Park to face Hoddesdon Town, while Faversham Town will be looking to set up a trip to Needham Market or Stanway Rovers when they host Staines Town in their replay.

After drawing 1-1 with Didcot Town on Saturday, VCD Athletic travel to Oxfordshire knowing a win would send them to Northwood or Harrow Borough.
