FA Cup draw in full: Arsenal meet Liverpool while Newcastle clash with Sunderland in headline fixtures

Arsenal will play Liverpool at home in the FA Cup third round after Sunday’s draw.

The meeting of the two Premier League giants is surely the standout fixture of one of English football’s most iconic weekends, due to be played between Friday, January 5 and Monday, January 8, 2024.

The Gunners have historically dominated the FA Cup and are record winners with 14 triumphs but haven’t gone past the fourth round in any of the last three seasons.

Holders Manchester City will meet Huddersfield Town as they begin their defence of the trophy, while beaten finalists Manchester United will travel to Wigan.

Chelsea and Tottenham will both begin their cup campaigns at home against Preston and Burnley respectively.

Brentford and Crystal Palace were both drawn against fellow Premier League teams in Wolves and Everton respectively, with Fulham hosting Rotherham and West Ham entertaining Bristol City.

The other standout fixture will see high-flying Newcastle make the short trip to bitter rivals Sunderland.
