Match Facts
Bristol Rovers and Whitby Town have never previously faced in the FA Cup proper. The Gas were knocked out of the FA Cup last season by non-league Boreham Wood.
Whitby Town are into the FA Cup first round for the first time since 2003-04, when they lost 4-0 away at Hartlepool United.
Bristol Rovers have progressed from their last four FA Cup first round ties, last going out at this stage in 2018-19 when they lost to Barnet in a replay. The Gas have lost four of their last six home FA Cup matches against non-league opposition (W1 D1).
Whitby are looking to reach the FA Cup second round for the first time since 1985-86, when they beat South Liverpool in the first round. Their only win against Football League opposition was in 1983-84, a 3-2 win at Halifax Town.
