Knocking out Tonbridge Angels in round one, the Bees are making history and will visit the Select Car Leasing Stadium this weekend for a 2pm kick-off.
While the FA Cup is not a priority for Ruben Selles' Royals in League One, battling off-field issues to miraculously fight for the play-offs, it will be close to a 50-50 split on matchday.
Given over 3,000 tickets for visiting supporters, fewer than 100 remain and will go on sale this evening at Harborough's Bowden Park stadium.
There is not much more than 3,500 home tickets purchased to date, still comfortably higher than the first round attendance of 3,685 against Fleetwood Town.
A winner must be decided on the day due to the scrapping of replays and the FA Cup third round still holds excitement for lower league clubs as Premier League and Championship sides enter the fray in January.
