Berkhamsted have already made history by reaching the FA Cup first round proper, after downing third-highest-ranked side in qualification Southend 2-1 away from home, and they have entered the outright betting for the tournament at 5000/1.

The Southern League Premier Division South side have been dealt a dream draw in terms of their chances of progression, dodging the EFL powerhouses, and matching up with fellow seventh-tier side Plymouth Parkway.

Plymouth Parkway are also quoted at 5000/1 for outright glory, but one thing is for sure, one team will make history and reach the second round of England’s main domestic cup competition.
