Championship side Coventry City host sixth-tier outfit Maidstone United at the Coventry Building Society Arena in an intriguing FA Cup encounter.
Coventry City have just lost two games in their own backyard and would be confident enough to defeat Maidstone United. The home side ran riot against Sheffield Wednesday in their previous FA Cup outing and they'll be aiming to replicate their heroics.
Maidstone United, on the other hand, look to continue their fairytale in the FA Cup as they'll be vying to get past Coventry City on Monday. The visitors have already dumped a Championship side in Ipswich Town out of the competition which could bolster their hopes of winning once again.
