This is the first meeting between Cambridge United and Bracknell Town in the FA Cup proper. The U’s eliminated non-league Curzon Ashton last season, although needed penalties to do so in a replay.
Bracknell Town have only appeared in the FA Cup proper twice before, losing in the first round both times, in 2000-01 (0-4 vs Lincoln) and 2022-23 (0-3 vs Ipswich).
In the last three seasons, the side to eliminate Cambridge United from the FA Cup has been a Town side – Shrewsbury Town in 2020-21, Luton Town in 2021-22 and Grimsby Town in 2022-23.
Only one of the last five non-league teams to face Cambridge in the FA Cup proper have eliminated them, with Guiseley doing so in 2018-19, winning 4-3 in the first round.
