Stourbridge take on Northampton Town in one of five Emirates FA Cup ties on Tuesday

Monday 12 Dec 2016

The lowest-ranked team remaining in The Emirates FA Cup, Stourbridge, have been synonymous with the second round in recent years and will take on Northampton Town in one of five ties on Tuesday.

The Northern Premier League side have got this far three times in the past five seasons and play their rearranged tie at a sold-out War Memorial Athletic Ground after the original meeting was postponed due to a frozen pitch.

And Stourbridge will now be hopeful of making it through to round three for the first time, and with it a trip to 2001 semi-finalists Wycombe Wanderers.

Manager Karl Robinson takes Charlton Athletic back to Stadium: MK, his home for more than six years, in one of four second round replays with the winners of their tie set to meet Brighton & Hove Albion.

The Buildbase FA Trophy holders FC Halifax Town take on fellow non-league side Eastleigh for the right to face Brentford in round three.

National League side Macclesfield Town travel to Oxford United, with the winners to meet Rotherham United, while Fleetwood Town meet Shrewsbury Town – the prize a trip to Bristol City.
