For the first time in their long history, Cray Wanderers have qualified for the first round of the FA Cup. The Isthmian League side have been drawn to play Stockport County. The away side are second in League One with one loss in nine games and our prediction is they will win this and lead at half and full time.
Cray Wanderers were formed in 1860, 12 years before the first ever FA Cup tournament was held. They are 18th in the Isthmian League but have only played ten league games due to the best FA Cup run in their history. Wanderers have had to win four ties to make it to the first round for the first time. Three of them went to replays (that won't happen in this first round) and a penalty shootout was required to see them beat National North side Bedford in the fourth qualifying round of the FA Cup.
Stockport County are flying high in League One in second place, only three points behind leaders Huddersfield Town. Last weekend saw them beat AFC Wimbledon 2-1 to record their eighth league win of the season. Their only loss in their last nine matches has been an away loss at Oxford United. They have won three away league matches this season.
