The FA and its broadcast partners have confirmed which clubs will cater for TV crews when the FA Cup first round proper ties are played in two weeks' time.
Each club involved in the three games to be shown to English audiences stand to net £67,500 – welcome news for Hyde United who have had their fixture against MK Dons selected.
The Tigers will host the League One side at Ewen Fields on Friday 3 November and will be shown live on BBC Two, reward for beating Scarborough Athletic to progress through the qualifying rounds.
Hyde chairman Steve Hartley said: “We couldn't ask for more than a home game and against a big club. It's absolutely perfect for us.
“These guys deserve it. It's the best team this club has had in a long, long time.”
Saturday lunchtime will see Shaw Lane battle Steve Evans' Mansfield Town for a place in the second round. With kick-off at 12.30pm, the Ducks will looks to defeat the Stags on BT Sport 1.
In addition to moving a number of ties to Sunday, the FA confirmed the Monday night match would be played at 's Victory Park when they welcome Uwe Rosler's Fleetwood Town.
A hat-trick from Cod Army loanee Nick Haughton ensured Matt Jansen's side would make the first round proper for the first time in 27 years, though in a bittersweet way the midfielder will be unable to play against his parent club in front of the TV cameras.
