Ball numbers for FA Cup 3rd round draw as 13 more sides book their place in hat

mirror.co.uk, 4 December 2021, 17:42
The world's oldest cup competition is at the second round stage and there are guaranteed to be at least two non-league sides in the hat for the famous third round

The much-anticipated FA Cup third round draw is on Monday night.

And there will definitely be at least two non-league sides in the hat. Kidderminster play FC Halifax Town whilst Boreham Wood host St Albans City.

The third round, of course, sees the teams from the Premier League and Championship enter the tournament and some of the lower league sides will be hoping for a plum tie that offers them a chance of a giant killing.

So far on second round weekend there have not been any major shocks.

However, a clutch of League Two sides have sprung surprise wins over teams from one division above.

Nigel Clough's Mansfield won 3-2 at managerless Doncaster whilst Port Vale knocked out Jimmy Floyd Hasslebaink's Burton Albion.

The only replay on the cards so far will see Barrow host Ipswich Town after a goalless draw at Portman Road on Saturday.

There are still six remaining ties to be played in the second round.

Four of them take place on Sunday. As well as the aforementioned ties involving non-league sides 2013 winners Wigan Athletic travel to Colchester, Rochdale host Plymouth and Salford City host National League leaders Chesterfield.

Boreham Wood versus St Albans City takes place on Monday.

Third round games are scheduled to take place between Friday, January 7 and Monday, January 10, 2022
