FA Cup first round: BBC to show Northampton vs Kettering and Tamworth vs Huddersfield
Kettering Town’s trip to League One side Northampton Town is one of two FA Cup first-round ties to be shown live on BBC Two in November.
Seventh-tier Kettering make the 17-mile trip to Northampton on 2 November, with kick-off at 17:30 GMT.
There are 82 places separating the two sides, who have faced one another in a competitive fixture just twice before.
It is the second of two first-round games to be shown, after Tamworth’s match against third-tier Huddersfield Town at 19:45 on 1 November.
The Lambs, who earned promotion to the National League last season, beat Macclesfield in the fourth round of qualifying to set-up a tie with 1922 winners Huddersfield.
ITV have selected three matches for broadcast, including Wrexham’s trip to Harrogate Town and Sutton United’s home tie with Birmingham City.
