WESTON-SUPER-MARE are just one win away from a potential tie against a Premier League club in the third round of the FA Cup - and to get there they need to beat a side lower than themselves in the National League South, writes Keith Watson.

‘The Seagulls, currently second in the table in the southern section of the sixth tier, beat Aldershot in their first round tie on Saturday.

Monday night's draw then handed them an away tie at Chelmsford City, who are 13th in the same division — 11 points behind Weston.

‘The sides drew 0-0 when meeting at Weston in the league in August.
