The second round of the FA Cup is fast approaching, and therefore so is the introduction of Premier League and Championship teams into the competition.
The remaining non-league, League One and League Two sides will be hoping for a home tie or an away day with a top club to boost their finances and pit themselves against the well-paid superstars.
Each winning club in the second round will also receive £54,000 from the FA prize fund – a nice little cash injection for the non-league sides. Interesting ties in the second round include Wrexham’s all-Welsh tie with Newport County, and the League One matchups between Portsmouth and Rochdale, and Walsall and Sunderland.
Here is everything you need to know about the draw:
When is the draw?
The draw will take place on Monday 3 December from 7.30pm.
How can I watch it?
The draw will be televised live on BBC One and you can watch it on TV or stream it live on BBC iPlayer. Mark Chapman will present the draw, which will be broadcast for 30 minutes.
When are the fixtures?
The third round will take place on the weekend of Saturday 5 January, with fixtures taking place between 4-7.
