At least two JCK Division Two sides will be in the draw for the second round of the Friends Provident International FA Cup on Saturday evening.

Colby - the lowest ranked club left in the competition - host fellow second tier outift Foxdale as the two aim to progress to the next round.

After their 2-1 victory over Onchan in the previous round, Gymns head to Division Two leaders Pulrose.

Malew are away at Old Boys while Union Mills travel to St Marys - who are chasing their first triumph in the competition since 2013 - in the day's late kick-off.

Rushen have been tasked with knocking out holders Corinthians at the first attempt, and 11-time winners St Georges face Douglas Royal at Glencrutchery Road.

In the day's other FA Cup ties, Peel meet Marown and the Canada Life Premier League's bottom club Laxey take on Douglas Athletic.
