Colney Heath will be at home but there’s an away trip for Harpenden Town looming after the draw for the early rounds of the FA Vase were revealed.
The Magpies face fellow Spartan South Midlands League outfit Harefield United while Harps have to go to Combined Counties Premier Division North Greenford United.
These matches will be played on Saturday, September 9.
Should they both win, they will both be away.
Heath would go to Hadley or Milton United while Town would visit Hillingdon Borough or Marston Shelton Rovers.
