Maidenhead United and Slough Town both face tricky away ties in the third round of the FA Trophy after the draw was made live on talkSPORT radio on Monday afternoon.

The Rebels reward for seeing off league rivals Farnborough 2-1 at Arbour Park on Saturday is a trip to one of the form sides in the National League, Bromley.

Bromley moved third in the table at the weekend with a 1-0 win over AFC Fylde and Scott Davies' side will have their work cut out if they're to see off the Ravens on their own patch to reach the fourth round of the competition.

They have, however, produced some excellent results in the cup competitions this season and will be looking to cause an upset when the sides meet at the RELOC8 EM Community Stadium on Saturday, December 9.

Maidenhead United are entering the competition at the third-round stage, and they've been handed an away draw at league rivals Dorking Wanderers.

The Magpies have been in fine form of late, winning their last three league matches in a row against Eastleigh, FC Halifax Town and Solihull Moors and they'll hope that continues to be the case when the sides meet on Saturday, December 9.

Dorking sit a couple of points and places above them in the National League, however, second half goals from Shawn McCoulsky and Ashley Nathaniel-George secured a 2-0 win for the Magpies over Marc White's men when the sides met at Meadowbank Stadium in the league back on August 12. Monday's draw was made following the weekend's action in the second round of the competition. The draw was split between North and South sections, and winning clubs will receive £4,500 from the FA's Prize Fund. Losing clubs will collect £1,250.
