FA Cup third round draw: When is it? How to watch, ball numbers confirmed, prize money

The second round of the FA Cup takes place this weekend with League One, League Two and non-league clubs looking to book showdowns with Championship and Premier League outfits in the third round of the competition.
There are a handful of lower-league clubs dreaming of glamour ties in the next stage, with Canvey Island the lowest-ranked team in the tournament, playing in the eighth tier.
Marine and King’s Lynn are among the other non-league sides in the next round, while Chorley – bottom of the sixth-tier National League North – take on the highest-ranked team in Peterborough United.
FA Cup games this season are split across BBC and BT Sport, meaning plenty of matches will be shown on free-to-air TV.
The third round proper is not until the weekend of Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 January 2021, when non-league clubs could be back in regular league action following the recent nationwide lockdown.
