HOT – Non-league minnows have home incentive

Both non-league sides left in the draw, Lincoln City and Sutton United, have earned a home tie in the next round should they win their respective replays next week.

Lincoln, who drew 2-2 at Championship side Ipswich on Saturday, will face second tier leaders Brighton in round four if they can get past the Tractor Boys, while Sutton United will go to AFC Wimbledon next week with the prospect of facing Garry Monk’s Leeds in round four.

Although they are not the big Premier League sides that Lincoln and Sutton fans would have been hoping for, both Brighton and Leeds are high-flying in the Championship and playing some excellent football, and it would be a great day for both non-league sides should they make the next round.
