Tony Adams and Micah Richards will conduct the FA Cup draw on Monday night from 7pm GMT, live on BBC Two and BBC iPlayer. If you’re not in the UK, the draw will also be shown on the Emirates FA Cup’s Facebook, Twitter and YouTube accounts worldwide.

Arsenal are set to be number two in this year’s third-round FA Cup draw, and we have the full list of numbers and their corresponding participants (our potential opponents) at the bottom of this article.

The ties are set to place on the weekend of Friday 3rd January to Monday 6th January.

Arsenal have had a couple of years of disappointing results in the cup competition. Eliminated by Manchester United and Nottingham Forest in the last two seasons, the Gunners haven’t made it past the January rounds since they won the competition in 2016/17.

As the record holders of the trophy, with 13 wins, it would be nice to fix that with an extended run this year.

If Freddie Ljungberg is still in charge as interim head coach, he has plenty of history with the competition, having won it three times as a player.
