They are offering odds of around 4/11 to defeat Potters Bar.

Hereford 4/11  Draw 4/1  Potters Bar 7/1

Should a replay be needed it will take place at Potters Bar on Tuesday evening next week. However clubs can agree to play Extra Time and Kicks from the Penalty Mark if the first match is level after 90 minutes. (See below for rules)

Meanwhile, assuming a result tomorrow,  Hereford are set to travel to Stratford on Tuesday for a Southern Premier League match.

However Stratford are also in the FA Trophy. They have to travel to Lancaster for their game for which the home team are favourites.

Lancaster 8/11  Draw 7/2  Stratford 10/3 

Finally the prize money on offer for winning clubs in the Second Qualifying Round is £4000.
