Maidstone United have landed a home draw in the second round of the FA Cup but their fellow Kent sides could be facing away ties.

Both Gillingham and Ebbsfleet United must overcome tough first round replays before they can plot their round two matches.

Gillingham will face another non-league test if they can overcome Hartlepool in their first round replay while Fleet have been handed the chance to face another Football League team.

The Gills have been drawn away to either Sutton United or Slough. The pair also played out a goalless draw at the weekend. United, who play home games on a 3G pitch, are currently sitting seventh in the National League while Slough are placed mid-table in the division below.

Maidstone will be up against Oldham Athletic, following the League 2 side's late win over Hampton & Richmond on Monday night.

Ebbsfleet will be travelling if they reach round two. Fleet or Cheltenham have been drawn away to League 1 side Accrington Stanley.

Gillingham played out bore draw with non-league Hartlepool in their first round tie at Priestfield on Saturday.

The Gills now face a long trip north next Wednesday to try and win a place in round two.

Maidstone beat League 2 Macclesfield in their first round match on Saturday, coming back from a goal down to win thanks to Jack Powell's strike and a Blair Turgott penalty.

Stones have reached the second round for the third time in the five years but defeats to Wrexham and MK Dons have denied them a third round spot.

Second round opponents Oldham won their first round tie with a 95th minute winner.

Ebbsfleet United, under new boss Garry Hill, held League 2 side Cheltenham Town to a goalless draw and they meet again in a replay next week.

Dover Athletic missed out on a place in round two after a heavy defeat at Bury.
