NEWPORT County will face either Tiverton Town or Eastleigh away in the fourth qualifying round of the FA Cup, if they beat North Leigh in a replay on Wednesday night at home.

It means County must travel away for the third consecutive round in the cup in order to reach the first round proper, which begins after the fourth qualifying phase.

County have certainly been given a much tougher draw this time around - both potential opponents being quality sides.

They drew 3-3 at Tiverton on Saturday and both teams would pose a considerable threat to County's cup aspirations.

Ryman Premier outfit Eastleigh have invested significantly in their squad in recent seasons and boast players of the calibre of former Southampton striker Nicky Banger, as well as ex-Winchester City FA Vase heroes Andy Forbes and Danny Smith, who played over 20 games for AFC Bournemouth.

Tiverton Town will be more familiar to County followers as they are a Southern Premier League outfit.

County visited Tiverton in a pre-season friendly and drew 0-0.

The Fourth Qualifying round takes place on Saturday, October 30.
