Sutton’s FA Cup First Round tie with AFC Telford United has not been selected for live television coverage, and will therefore take place on Saturday, 1st November, kicking off at 3pm.

The U’s welcome the National League North side to the VBS Community Stadium after a dramatic victory in the previous stage over Farnham Town, with Jayden Harris’ 90+8th minute leveller at the Memorial Ground forcing a replay, before Will Tizzard struck in the 120th minute to seal a narrow 3-2 win in Extra Time.

Chris Agutter’s side had been drawn against Telford prior to Worthing’s defeat to Forest Green Rovers live on TNT Sports, and are now set to host the Bucks for the first time in cup football.

Full ticket details will be confirmed in due course.
