ACCRINGTON Stanley face a testing trip to Portsmouth in the second round of the FA Cup.
John Coleman’s side, who overcame York City in the first round on Saturday, must make the long trip south for the tie which will be played over the first weekend in December.
The cup clash will see the Reds face former managers Paul Cook and Leam Richardson who are in charge on the south coast and pits together two sides currently neck and neck in the League Two table with fourth placed Stanley behind Pompey only on goal difference.
The two sides have already met this season at Fratton Park in the league when the game ended goalless.
Elsewhere, Salford City, managed by former Ramsbottom bosses Anthony Johnson and Bernard Morley, and featuring ex Stanley striker Danny Webber in their squad, will host Hartlepool.
