Following their triumph in the FA Cup fourth qualifying round, Curzon Ashton have been rewarded with another home tie in the first-round proper, they will take on Barnet or Aveley on the weekend of Saturday 4 November.

The Nash defeated National League North leaders Tamworth 1-0 on Saturday (14 October) to make it back-to-back first-round appearances, after hosting Cambridge United at this stage last season.

Should Craig Mahon’s side make it past their first-round opponents they would equal their best-ever FA Cup run after reaching the second round on two occasions, firstly in the 2008-09 season and secondly back in the 2016-17 campaign.
