Match Facts

  • Chelmsford and Braintree Town have never previously faced in the FA Cup proper (first round onwards).

  • Braintree have reached the FA Cup first round in consecutive seasons for the first time since doing so in five in a row between 2012-13 and 2016-17.

  • Chelmsford City have been eliminated in their last two FA Cup first round ties, last reaching the second round back in 2012-13, beating Colchester in the first round.

  • Braintree Town have won just one of their 10 matches in the FA Cup proper (D3 L6) but that did come in a 7-0 hammering of Eastbourne Borough in November 2016.
