WORCESTER City will travel to Northamptonshire to take on Daventry Town in the Extra Preliminary Round of The Emirates FA Cup.

The Blue and Whites’ road to Wembley begins with a trip to Browns Road to take on Daventry Town on Saturday, August 5.

If City overcome their United Counties League Premier Division opponents they will receive £1,500 in prize money and a home tie against Chasetown FC, which will be played on Saturday, August 19.

A victory over the Staffordshire outfit in the Preliminary Round would see City scoop £1,925.
