  1. Ones to watch: Bradfordpublished at 11:56 Greenwich Mean Time 9 November 2014

    And in the Bradford side, forward Mark Yeates, who began his career at Tottenham, gets a special mention too.

    BBC Radio Leeds commentator Dave Fletcher: "He is quick, has a trick, loves a shot at goal - whether from open play or from a dead ball - and he can also create chances for his team-mates. He is getting close to showing the form that saw Middlesbrough pay £500k for him five years ago."

    Striker Scott Boden, who was part of the Macclesfield team to force a replay with Championship side Sheffield Wednesday in the third round last season, has also been singled out:

    BBC Radio Leeds commentator Dave Fletcher: "He is not a tall man, nor is he blessed with electric pace, but he has already scored eight goals this season, including one in the win over Chorley that set up this tie. Perhaps more impressively, he has also picked up five assists, putting him right up there as one of the Conference's top strikers."

  3. Ones to watch: Halifaxpublished at 11:53 Greenwich Mean Time 9 November 2014

    You'd be excused for not knowing too much about the Halifax team, but fortunately BBC Radio Leeds commentator Dave Fletcher is on hand to give us the lowdown on who to keep an eye on, starting with defender and captain Marc Roberts:

    "Town's skipper is rapidly becoming one of the most dependable central defenders in non-league football. Good with the ball at his feet, he also possesses a flat and quick long throw-in which is sure to test the City defence."

  4. Halifax 'do have a chance'published at 11:51 Greenwich Mean Time 9 November 2014

    FC Halifax boss Neil Aspin says his side "do have a chance" against Bradford this afternoon - but also concedes that the Bantams have "a much bigger chance".

    The Shaymen are currently sitting fourth in the Conference, while Phil Parkinson's men go into the tie on a five-match winless run in the league.

    "In terms of finances it's a massive gulf," Aspin told BBC Radio Leeds. "Their top earner earns more than our squad put together."

    FC Halifax name an unchanged side to the one that drew 0-0 with Wrexham last Saturday.

    But Jamie Jackson and Josh Wilson are dropped from the bench as seven subs for the league becomes five subs for the FA Cup.

    Bantams boss Phil Parkinson makes two enforced changes to his side, with Ben Williams coming in between the sticks and Jason Kennedy replacing James Hanson up front.

    Andy Halliday and Jon Stead both keep their places after being given permission by their parent clubs to play in the tie.

    FC Halifax Town: Glennon, Roberts, Ainge, Williams, Roberts, Pearson, Maynard, McManus, Marshall, Peniket, Boden. Substitutes: Senior, Bolton, Smith, Dyer, Schofield.

    Bradford City: Williams, Darby, Meredith, Davies, Sheehan, Knott, Yeates, Stead, Kennedy, Morais, Halliday. Substitutes: Urwin, Dolan, Clarke, Routis, McBurnie, McArdle.

  9. Bradford's cup exploitspublished at 11:40 Greenwich Mean Time 9 November 2014

    Bradford have enjoyed recent cup success, famously reaching the 2013 League Cup final against Swansea, despite being in League Two at the time.

    They saw off Premier League sides Wigan, Arsenal and Aston Villa on their way to Wembley - before getting rather emphatically trounced 5-0 by the Swans.

    For the record, the Bantams have actually won the FA Cup once too, back in 1911. They managed to squeeze past Newcastle 1-0 in a replayed final after the original match ended 0-0. Sounds like a thriller.

    Perhaps not a town steeped in any great footballing tradition, if you type Halifax into Google you're more likely to find a picture of this guy than anything to do with the football team.

    The Shaymen have produced one memorable FA Cup shock though, beating then First Division side Manchester City at the first-round stage in 1980.

    Today's early kick-off sees Conference high-flyers FC Halifax Town play host to Bradford City.

    But, although just 10 miles separate The Shay and Valley Parade, meaning that Halifax are indeed the League One side's nearest neighbours in the top five divisions, these two sides don't exactly lock horns often these days.

    The teams haven't crossed paths in a competitive fixture since 1998, when Bradford were 5-2 winners over two legs in the League Cup. That's actually their only meeting since the early 80s, when the two clubs were in the old English Division Four together.

    They have never faced one another in the FA Cup.

    Swindon Town have been going great guns under Mark Cooper recently, but there was no sign of them carrying their league form into the Cup.

    Byron Harrison scored a hat-trick as fourth-tier Cheltenham produced a brilliant performance to win 5-0 at Whaddon Road, although the visitors did have to play with 10 men for 69 minutes after Nathan Thompson's red card.

    Meanwhile, Cambridge also upset the odds to win at home to Fleetwood, and League One leaders Bristol City remain the highest-ranked team in the competition, overcoming Gillingham thanks in part to this thing of beauty from Jay Emmanuel-Thomas.

  17. Saturday's shockspublished at 11:16 Greenwich Mean Time 9 November 2014

    Bad weather may have denied Weston-super-Mare and Concord Rangers the opportunity to cause further upsets on Saturday, but in their absence Chester and Dover did non-league football proud.

    Craig Mahon's second-half strike gave Conference side Chester a 2-1 victory at Phil Brown's Southend, while Morecambe were humbled at Dover thanks to Stefan Payne's goal on the stroke of half-time.

    We almost had a shock on our hands at the JD Stadium too, but Hemel Hempstead Town of Conference South were eventually edged out by a couple of late goals from League Two high-flyers Bury.

    The oldest association football competition in the world returned to the BBC in style on Friday night, with Northern Premier Division One club Warrington Town, in the first round proper for the first time in their history, hosting Exeter City of League Two.

    The match, live on BBC Two, didn't disappoint. Defender and plasterer Craig Robinson headed the home side into a seventh-minute lead and, somehow, they survived a second-half Grecians onslaught to book their spot in the second round.

    We've got 11 cracking FA Cup ties to bring you this afternoon, starting with a rather juicy West Yorkshire derby to get our teeth into at 12:00 GMT.

    With 13 non-league sides, including the second-lowest-ranked club to remain in the competition, and four former Cup winners all in action during the next five hours or so, I have a feeling we could be in for a busy one.

    But before we get stuck into all of that, here's a little look back at what you might've missed already...
