The draw was made yesterday at the Vale Hotel near Cardiff following Saturday’s second qualifying round, which saw Cefn’s opponents beat Pen Y Ffordd 1-0 to progress.
The 12 Welsh Premier League clubs don’t enter the tournament until round three but Cefn’s run to the final in May will give them and the other lower division clubs hope of repeating the feat this time.
Cefn managed to beat a couple of top-tier sides during their cup run last season and for Bodedern Athletic it’s a former Welsh Premier giant in the shape of Rhyl who stand in their way of making the second round.
Rhyl, current leaders of the Huws Gray Alliance, will be favourites for the encounter at their Belle Vue home but nothing is ever certain in knockout football.
Also in the North, Halkyn Utd of the Welsh Alliance second division and one of the lowest ranked northern clubs left, host Llanidloes Town while Llanuwchllyn have home advantage as they look to upset Buckley Town.
Like Halkyn and Llanuwchllyn, Presteigne St Andrews of the Spar Mid Wales second division are another Level 4 side and they have the chance to cause a surprise when they entertain Penrhyncoch of the Huws Gray Alliance.
Another stand-out tie sees Welsh Alliance outfit Caernarfon Town host Conwy Borough of the Huws Gray Alliance at the Oval.
In the South, there are five all-Welsh League division one clashes with current leaders AFC Porth travelling East to Monmouth Town while former cup winners Barry Town make the trip to Caerleon and reigning league champions Cambrian & Clydach face Cwmbran Celtic.
There are three Level 5 clubs remaining in the southern section and South Wales Senior League outfit Brecon Corries have been handed a tough home draw against one-time UEFA Cup entrants Haverfordwest County.
South Wales Amateur League side Treforest travel to Welsh League club Aberbargoed Buds and Cwmamman United of the Neath League are at home to Newbridge on Wye of the Spar Mid Wales League.
