Holders Man Utd head to Arsenal! Blockbuster all-Premier League tie headlines FA Cup third round draw as Liverpool, Man City & Chelsea find out their opponents

The draw for the FA Cup third round was made on Monday evening and is headlined by the fact that Arsenal will host Man United in a stern test of the Red Devils' credentials to retain the trophy they won under Erik ten Hag. Elsewhere, Manchester City drew Salford City, a club owned by the Class of 92, a group of United legends. Tottenham will head down the leagues, as they face National League Tamworth away from home.

The big six in the Premier League have been drawn against the following opponents:

Liverpool vs Accrington Stanley

Manchester City vs Salford City

Chelsea vs Morecambe

Arsenal vs Manchester United

Tamworth vs Tottenham Hotspur

Your team not among the bix six? The full third-round draw has been made.

The fixtures will be played over the weekend of the 11th of January. It remains to be seen which games will be scheduled for television but that will be announced shortly. Arsenal's clash with United and Spurs' trip to Tamworth are almost inevitable, as is Liverpool's clash with Accrington Stanley.

The busy Christmas period comes before the third round of the FA Cup kicks off. Most Premier League teams face seven domestic games before the weekend of the 11th of January. Squad rotation will be key as the likes of Arsenal and Chelsea try to stop Liverpool pulling even further away at the top of the table, while the FA Cup may provide some respite to a struggling Man City side.
