FA Cup third round draw: Man United to face Arsenal in tie of the round

Harry Warner

The FA Cup third-round draw has been made.

The draw for the FA third round has taken place, with holders Manchester United set to face Arsenal in the pick of the ties.

Liverpool will welcome Accrington Stanley at Anfield.

Man City, meanwhile, will play a tasty game against fellow local team Salford City, who are part-owned by Man United legends Gary Neville, David Beckham, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Nicky Butt, and Phil Neville.

Chelsea will play Morecambe while Tamworth got themselves a home fixture against Tottenham Hotspur in a huge game for the non-league side.

Other stand-out matches include Aston Villa vs West Ham United, Newcastle vs Bromley and a Yorkshire derby between Leeds and Harrogate Town.

Everton will also face Peterborough United, which means that 39-year-old Toffees defender Ashley Young could face his 18-year-old son Tyler, who is on the books of the League One side.
