The draw for the third round of the FA Cup has been made as the 20 Premier League sides learned their opponents for their opening fixtures in the oldest cup competition in football.
The 20 top-flight sides and all 24 Championship teams enter at this stage, joining the 20 clubs who made it through the second round this weekend, including the remaining non-league representatives Dagenham & Redbridge and Tamworth.
And Tamworth have earned themselves a plum tie, with Tottenham Hotspur bringing a touch of glamour to the Lamb Ground with Ange Postecoglou’s side drawn against the Staffordshire Club. The Daggers, meanwhile, make a short hop across east London to take on Milwall.
The pick of the all-Premier League ties is between Arsenal and Manchester United, a famous FA Cup rivalry, while Manchester City will take on Salford City – owned by the Class of ‘92. Ties will be played across the weekend of 11-12 January 2025.

FA Cup third round draw – Harrogate Town face short trip to Leeds
“It’s an amazing draw for us,” Harrogate Town boss Simon Weaver says to the BBC after being drawn against fellow Yorkshire side Leeds United.
“We won’t need an overnight stop, which will please the boys. It will be a special experience. Just getting on the coach, making that short journey to a magnificent stadium in Elland Road with all that rich history. It’ll be a very memorable day for the club.”
