Fleet travel to Maidstone in Emirates FA Cup

The Fleet will travel to Maidstone United in a Kent derby at the Gallagher Stadium in the Emirates FA Cup Fourth Qualifying Round.

The draw, which took place on talkSPORT this afternoon, was regionalised into north and south sections and has paired the county neighbours together.
