The reward for Gillingham should they beat Dagenham & Redbridge in the FA Cup Second Round replay is a lucrative tie at home to Premier League side Leicester City.

With the replay to be staged at Priestfield in front of the TV cameras on Thursday 8th December, the winner now knows they will face Brendon Rogers’ side at home.

Monday evening’s Third Round draw paired some big names together, but Gills fans only had their eyes on ball number 58 as former England defender Mark Wright handed them a home tie – should they be able to get there.

It will be the third Premier League side Gillingham have faced this season should they make it to the FA Cup Third Round as they’ve already beaten Brentford in the Carabao Cup.

Neil Harris’ side have an eagerly awaited trip to Wolverhampton Wanderers to come before Christmas in the Carabao Cup and Gillingham fans will be hoping it’s a hat-trick of wins against the top flight teams.

Should Gillingham make it to the FA Cup Third Round, the tie with Leicester City will be played over the weekend of the 7th/8th January and therefore the League Two clash with Crewe Alexandra at Priestfield will be postponed to a later date.
