Leicester City learn their fate alongside non-league debutants in the FA Cup first-round draw

According to The Sun, the standout storyline from the latest draw features Peterborough United manager Robbie Savage preparing to face his own son, Charlie Savage, when Peterborough host Reading.

League One and League Two’s 48 clubs have officially joined the 32 remaining non-league sides. This exciting early stage often produces memorable moments, and the upcoming clash at London Road promises to be a deeply personal affair for the Savage family as they seek a spot in the second round.

Leicester City and Wigan Athletic enter the tournament early this year following recent struggles, representing the most high-profile former winners in the current mix. Leicester have been drawn away to sixth-tier Oxford City, presenting a massive opportunity for the non-league hosts to claim a famous scalp.

The Foxes have found life difficult in League One after suffering back-to-back relegations, managing to win just three of their opening nine league games. Meanwhile, Wigan are set to travel south to face Boreham Wood in another intriguing encounter.

Further down the football pyramid, several clubs are eyeing their own giant-killing heroics. Tadley Calleva remain the lowest-ranked team in contention, set to travel to League One outfit Barnsley provided they overcome Aldershot in Tuesday’s replay. Elsewhere, AFC Rushden & Diamonds will visit Burton Albion. In a twist of fate, seventh-tier debutants Plymouth Parkway and Berkhamsted missed out on drawing Football League opposition entirely, as the two clubs were drawn against each other for a guaranteed spot in the next stage.

Mansfield Town v Macclesfield or Anstey Nomads

Luton Town v Chesham United or Forest Green Rovers

Kidderminster Harriers v Doncaster Rovers

Chesterfield v Leatherhead or Yeovil Town

Burton Albion v AFC Rushden & Diamonds

Bedford Town or Cray Wanderers v Stockport County

Colchester United v Chorley or Worcester City

Plymouth Argyle v Spalding United or Alvechurch

Gateshead or Stafford Rangers v Grimsby Town

All first-round fixtures will take place across the weekend of 7 November. The advancing teams will then await the round two draw, hoping to secure their passage into the lucrative third round where the Championship and Premier League heavyweights finally enter the fray.
