After beating Barnsley 7-0 in the third round, 2023 winners Manchester United will play Leicester City at Old Trafford next. Leicester needed penalties to get past League Two side Walsall.

Arsenal’s youngsters stole the show in their 5-1 win against Bolton Wanderes and they will now go to Deepdale to take on Championship side Preston North End in round four.

Brentford have been drawn to face Sheffield Wednesday at home and Southampton will welcome second-tier Stoke City to St Mary’s.

There is still one third round tie to be settled after severe flooding at Plough Lane led to League Two's AFC Wimbledon being denied the chance to entertain Newcastle United.

That postponed fixture has now been switched to be played at St James’ Park next week. The prize up for grabs for the winner is a home tie against Chelsea in the next round.

Round four will be played in the week commencing October 28.
