Good evening! As it's almost the end of an action-packed third round in the FA Cup, it's nearly time for the teams still in the competition to find out who they face next time out.

There weren't too many shocks in the third round, with the remaining non-league sides being eliminated, including Blyth Spartans, who held a 2-0 lead over Birmingham City before slipping to a defeat. Arsenal, Chelsea, and the two Manchester clubs are both through, with Liverpool and Tottenham able to join them this evening.

Former AFC Wimbledon player Lawrie Sanchez will be drawing the balls out of the pot tonight, along with the coach of the Kingstonian's under-18s ladies side.

Here we go then....

Southampton or Ipswich vs. Crystal Palace

Cambridge United vs. Manchester United

Blackburn Rovers vs. Swansea City

Chelsea vs. Millwall or Bradford City

Derby County vs. Scunthorpe or Chesterfield

Preston North End vs. Sheffield United

Birmingham City vs. West Brom

Aston Villa vs. AFC Bournemouth

Cardiff City vs. Reading

AFC Wimbledon or Liverpool vs. Bolton

Burnley or Tottenham vs. Leicester City

Brighton vs. Arsenal

Rochdale vs. Stoke City

Sunderland vs. Fulham or Wolverhampton Wanderers

Doncaster or Bristol City vs. Everton or West Ham United

Manchester City vs. Middlesbrough

So that's all 16 ties draw for the fourth round, and there are some exciting looking matchups in there. Cambridge United will be delighted to have drawn Manchester United, while Millwall will have the incentive or a tie against Chelsea when they take part in their replay against Bradford.

There's also a Midlands derby to look forward to, with Birmingham City drawing local rivals West Bromwich Albion. There will also be at least one League One side making it into the fifth round, with Preston facing Sheffield United.

That's all from the draw, but stick around as our live coverage of the tie between AFC Wimbledon and Liverpool is already underway, with kickoff just 10 minutes away. Thanks for joining me this evening, goodbye.
