FA Cup trips await West Midlands-based survivors Stafford Rangers, Hednesford, Chasetown and Stourbridge if they all make it through.
Evo-Stik Northern Premier League sides Rangers and Chasetown and Southern League club Stourbridge all face replays tomorrow night.
If they can seal their passage from the second qualifying round and pick up £3,000 in prize money, they will all travel a week on Saturday.
Hednesford are safely through after a 3-0 win at Redditch United and head to Midland Combination underdogs Nuneaton Griff.
Rangers must first negotiate a home replay against Stourport Swifts at Marston Road and could go to either Thurnby Nirvana or Gresley.
Chasetown need to do likewise at Market Drayton Town and face a long trip to Norfolk to play Dereham if they go through.
Stourbridge are the third side facing a replay, against Leamington at home, and visit Blue Square North side Corby if they win.
Cup minnows Wolverhampton Casuals will be pitted against Blue Square North side Hinckley United if they can beat Tividale in a replay.
West Midlands Premier League outfit Casuals go to Midland Alliance side Dale tomorrow night, after a 1-1 draw between the sides on Saturday.
The winner will travel to the highest-ranked opposition they could expect, with the Leicestershire side in the third tier of non-league football.
Casuals staged only their second-ever FA Cup tie at Brinsford Lane and progression into the second qualifying round would net them a windfall.
