What ball number is Liverpool in FA Cup third round draw? Start time and TV details

The FA Cup third round draw is a much-anticipated event in the football calendar. Premier League and Championship teams will join the fray, with many lower-league clubs dreaming of landing a high-profile match.

The third round will feature 64 teams, comprising the top two divisions and the 20 second round victors. The FA Cup draw will include at least two sixth-tier clubs due to a pair of all-non-league matches this weekend.

Most clubs in the third round draw will be hoping to draw big names like Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United, as marquee fixtures can significantly bolster a team's finances. Here are all the details about the FA Cup third round draw.

The FA Cup third round draw is scheduled for Monday, December 8, at roughly 6.40pm UK time (1:40pm ET). The draw will be carried out by ex-Liverpool stars Peter Crouch and Joe Cole ahead of the kick-off between Brackley Town and Burton Albion, the final match of the second round.

How to watch the third round draw

The third round draw will be aired live on TNT Sports 1 in the UK. It will also be available for live streaming on the discovery+ app.
