The Blues made one change to their side with Anthony Charles back for the injured Shane Blackett.

Dunstable had the lead when Scott Davies fired in a trademark free kick on 22 minutes, while Lee Roache then added a second moments later.

However, Chesham fought back midway through the first half and reduced the deficit after Davies deflected in Toby Little’s strike.

Roache then suffered what looked like a metatarsal injury and was replaced by Jemale McKenzie-Lewis, while in the second period, United were level as Little scored a goal of his own this time.

Both clubs will now meet again on Tuesday to see who will take their place in the next round.
