The draw was made this evening and Maynooth were handed an away tie against the cup holders Cork City.

The other non-league side, CIE Ranch have been drawn at home against fellow Dubliners UCD, with all five of the Dublin league clubs drawn away from home.

The ties will be played on the last weekend (August 24-26) of this month.
