Grays and Harlow fought out a 2-2 draw at the first time of asking on Saturday and will do it all again tomorrow (Tuesday) night for the right to face a United side which came from behind to win 2-1 at Whyteleafe thanks to goals from Sam Adams and Ade Olorunda.

The second round qualifying winners will receive £4,500 from the FA’s prize fund. United’s two victories so far have earned them just under £5,000.
