It will be the first meeting of the sides in their current guises but Bentley are believed to be linked to the old Brodsworth sides that Emley faced 8 times.

AFC Bentley, are based in Doncaster and were formed in 2016 and currently play in the Central Midlands Alliance Premier Division North which is step 7 of the pyramid system, 3 levels below Emley.

This is the 3rd opponent from this level for the Pewits this season, having previously seen off CMA Premier Division North leaders Dinnington Town and Sheffield and Hallamshire Premier Division Wombwell Town in previous rounds.

AFC Bentley have seen off Yorkshire Main (who Emley met last season) and impressively, Parkgate, last season's NCEL D1 winners and who beat Emley comfortably in the NCEL League cup final.

Both teams sit 3rd in their respective leagues, but Bentley have the better form, unbeaten in 9 and have scored an incredible 22 in their last 4 games, including a thumping 14-4 league cup win!

The weather put paid to any games this weekend so both sides remain 3rd in their respective leagues.
