That concludes our live blog – and some great ties to look forward to.
A tough game for Maidstone, with the sixth-tier giant killers heading to high-flying Ipswich in the Championship. That may be nothing compared to Eastleigh, should they get through, however: they may be hosting Manchester United.
Tottenham against Manchester City may well be the tie of the round and the holders have reason to fear Spurs: Guardiola doesn’t have the best record against the north Londoners.
Which game are you looking forward to most?
