Defending Champions Arsenal will host Hull City in the 3rd Round of the FA Cup, after beating them last year in the final of the FA Cup. Hull City boss Steve Bruce was present during the draw.

“We’d been drawn against Arsenal in the rehearsal,” Bruce told BBC Sport.

“Let’s hope it is as good as the final, because it was a great game.”

Tigers captain Curtis Davies said: “I guess it was just meant to be.”

Elsewhere, Liverpool face a trip to AFC Wimbledon, Chelsea host Watford and Manchester United will make a trip to Accrington or Yeovil.

Premier League ties: Burnley v Tottenham, Leicester v Newcastle and Everton v West Ham, plus Arsenal v Hull.

Ties to be played on 3-6 January.
