Nov 08: The FA Cup is set to capture the imagination this weekend as it reaches the first round.
The programme includes Division Two, Three and Conference teams as well as the non-league minnows who have made it to this stage.
The likes of Ryman League side Bishop's Stortford travel to Third Division Mansfield and there is plenty of potential for upsets over Saturday and Sunday.
Mansfield were involved in one of the more romantic ties of last year when they beat Team Bath at this stage and became the first university side to reach the FA Cup first round since Oxford in 1880.
Shrewsbury Town beat Premiership side Everton during last year's competition and they are back in action against Scunthorpe.
Conference leaders Hereford are also a side to watch out for as they try to upstage Second Division Peterborough.
