A HIGHLY-ANTICIPATED Dublin derby between Bohemians and Shelbourne is the pick of the ties as the FAI Cup first round draw took place on Monday evening, with all fixtures due to take place the weekend of 11 August.
The Gypsies will host First Division leaders Shels at Dalymount Park as another instalment of a heated rivalry between the two north Dublin clubs prepares to unfold.
Defending champions Dundalk will travel to St Colman’s Park in the opening round of their title defence taking on Cobh Ramblers, who knocked the Lilywhites out of the EA Sports Cup in a massive upset last season.
