The draw for the opening round of the Hinchingbrooke Cup has thrown up an intriguing all-Huntingdonshire clash.
Back-to-back Thurlow Nunn League Premier Division runners-up Godmanchester Rovers will host top-six United Counties League Premier Division outfit Eynesbury Rovers at the David Wilson Homes Ground.
Eynesbury roared to a 4-0 victory at Godmanchester when the sides met in a Hunts Senior Cup semi-final last season.
Huntingdon Town will have home advantage in the first round of the Hinchingbrooke Cup.
Bob Warby’s men, who received a relegation reprieve in the UCL Premier Division after finishing bottom last season, will host UCL Division One side Raunds at Jubilee Park.
Both ties are to be played before October 31.
