The Kevin Lisbie tie! Charlton host Cray Valley Paper Mills FC in FA Cup 1st round

Charlton Athletic's FA Cup tie with Cray Valley Paper Mills FC is the pick of the First Round.

Cray Valley compete in the eighth tier of the English football pyramid and reached the First Round proper after successfully navigating a raft of qualifying ties.

They reach the First Round for the second time in their history after qualifying wins over Lordswood, Uxbridge, Northwood, Carshalton Athletic and Enfield Town.

Cray Valley will go to The Valley with former Charlton striker Kevin Lisbie's son, Kyrell, leading the attack. Indeed, Kyrell scored twice as they defeated Enfield 5-2 in Saturday's final qualifying round.

Kevin Lisbie spent 11 years at Charlton between 1996-2007 before a four-year stint at Cray Valley towards the end of his long career.
