Dom Di Paola’s side reached the fourth round by beating AFC Totton 2-0 at the Campimg World Community Stadium on Saturday.

The other Sussex side in the draw are Whitehawk, whose third round tie at Hythe was called off on Saturday and will now be played on Tuesday night.

The winners of that tie will be at home to Chorley in the next round.

Horsham’s FA Trophy adventure comes after the end of an FA Cup run which took them to the second round, in which they lost 3-0 at Sutton.
