Full-time: Gillingham 1-0 Cardiff
Neil Warnock’s side are dumped out of the Cup. The League One side survive eight minutes of second-half stoppage time to clinch victory. Few Cardiff players did themselves any favours at Priestfield, with Gillingham prospering following Elliott List’s winner, after a mistake by Cardiff goalkeeper Alex Smithies. For the first time in 15 years, the Gills are in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
Updated
Full-time: Derby 2-2 Southampton
Frank Lampard’s side earn a third-round replay, after fighting back from two goals down to earn a draw. Nathan Redmond scored twice for Saints before Derby rallied to force a replay that both teams could really do without.
Updated
Full-time: Everton 2-1 Lincoln City
It was not a cakewalk, but Marco Silva’s side are through.
Full-time: Chelsea 2-0 Nottingham Forest
Cesc Fàbregas is in floods of tears at the final whistle. That looks to be a goodbye to England as well as Chelsea. The holders cruise into the fourth round. Callum Hudson-Odoi did himself no harm.
Updated
GOAL! Fleetwood 2-3 AFC Wimbledon (Appiah, 90)
And that’s surely the winner!
Updated
GOAL! Bolton 5-2 Walsall (Magennis, 87)
Josh Magennis hits a second-half hat-trick. Now, there is a sentence you will scarcely hear – if ever again. Bolton are cruising into the fourth round.
Updated
GOAL! Middlesbrough 5-0 Peterborough (Fletcher, 87)
Ashley Fletcher joins the party at the Riverside.
85 min: Maurizio Sarri makes his final change. On comes N’Golo Kanté. Cesc Fàbregas bows out of Chelsea and, presumably, England for the last time.
Updated
GOAL! Gillingham 1-0 Cardiff (List, 81)
Ooooo! Elliott List, the former Crystal Palace youngster, scores his sixth of the season and Neil Warnock’s side are in grave danger of being on the receiving end of a good ole’ Cup upset.
Updated
GOAL! Bolton 4-2 Walsall (Magennis, 80)
Goalfest at Bolton!
GOAL! Aston Villa 0-3 Swansea (Fulton, 78)
From bad to worse for Dean Smith’s Villa. Jay Fulton adds a third.
Updated
76 min: Morata is replaced by Cesar Azpilicueta as Chelsea look to close the game out at Stamford Bridge. Meanwhile, for buildup to Blackpool v Arsenal and team news, look no further:
Updated
GOAL! Accrington 1-0 Ipswich (Kee, 76)
Can you smell that? The sweet scent of an FA Cup upset.
Updated
GOAL! Fleetwood 2-2 AFC Wimbledon (Evans pen, 72)
Ched Evans levels things up from the spot. Wally Downes’s side had steamrollered into a 2-0 lead but two goals in two minutes restore parity. Joey Barton’s team are not going quietly.
Updated
71 min: Jack Colback is shown a yellow card for a cynical challenge on Ross Barkley inside the Chelsea half. Meanwhile, a new low for Bolton: the attendance at what is now affectionately known as the University of Bolton Stadium is just 5,506, the lowest ever post-war FA Cup third round crowd at Bolton.
Updated
GOAL! Middlesbrough 4-0 Peterborough (Assombalonga, 70)
Britt Assombalonga gets his second and that’s surely job done.
Updated
GOAL! Bolton 3-2 Walsall (Beevers og, 68)
Another own goal at Bolton, and a sixth goal in 10 minutes.
65 min: Fancy a Chelsea stat, via Opta? Callum Hudson-Odoi is the first teenager to assist two goals in a single competitive fixture for Chelsea since Scott Sinclair (v Leicester in 2007). Meanwhile, Jonathan Kodjia has gone close for Aston Villa against Swansea, but they still trail by two goals and Mohamed Elyounoussi should have helped Southampton re-gain their lead, but his header is tame and, instead, the Derby keeper Kelle Roos gobbles it up.
Updated
GOAL! Bolton 3-1 Walsall (Guthrie og, 63)
Jon Guthrie puts the ball into his own net as Bolton score three goals in five minutes. At half-time, an upset seemed to be brewing.
GOAL! Middlesbrough 3-0 Peterborough (Wing, 62)
That feels like game over at the Riverside, as Lewis Wing adds a third. Meanwhile, Charlton go close through Darren Pratley. It’s 1-1 at the Valley, against Sunderland.
Updated
GOAL! Bolton 2-1 Walsall (Magennis, 61)
Josh Magennis pokes Bolton in front for the first time. Can they hold on?
GOAL! Derby 2-2 Southampton (Lawrence, 61)
Things were looking so rosy for Saints too. A superb striker by Tom Lawrence, one of Frank Lampard’s star performers this season.
Updated
GOAL! Bolton 1-1 Walsall (Donaldson, 58)
Clayton Donaldson grabs an equaliser for Phil Parkinson’s beleaguered side.
GOAL! Chelsea 2-0 Nottingham Forest (Morata, 59)
Like London buses, etc. A brilliant header by the Spaniard and another fine assist by Callum Hudson-Odoi who is doing a good job of staking a claim for a regular starting berth. Moments before Morata had a missed an absolute sitter, of course.
Updated
GOAL! Derby 1-2 Southampton (Marriott, 58)
Jack Marriott pull one back, with his 10th goal of the season.
Updated
GOAL! Middlesbrough 2-0 Peterborough (Friend, 50)
George Friend doubles Boro’s lead in the north-east.
Updated
GOAL! Chelsea 1-0 Nottingham Forest (Morata, 49)
It had been coming. Álvaro Morata strikes at Stamford Bridge. Wonderful wing play by Callum Hudson-Odoi, the 18-year-old, to set up Morata for his eighth of the season. It was a nice instinctive one-touch finish by the Spaniard. Earlier on Forest fans were giving it “You’re just a shit Daryl Murphy”. That’s them told.
Updated
GOAL! Aston Villa 0-2 Swansea (Dyer, 47)
Nathan Dyer scores his first goal for 11 months.
GOAL! Derby 0-2 Southampton (Redmond, 48)
Nathan Redmond scores his – and Saints’ – second of the afternoon. It’s another effort from distance, and this one is a corker too. Charlie Austin lays the ball off and Redmond waltzes towards the edge of the box, where he jinks inside and bends an effort into the far corner. It is only the second time in his career that he has weighed in with two goals in the same game. A beautiful strike, and his fourth goal in five games; he has been rejuvenated under Ralph Hasenhüttl.
Updated
GOAL! Middlesbrough 1-0 Peterborough (Assombalonga, 47)
Breakthrough at the Riverside.

Forget about kick-offs being strewn over four days, and tuck into this gallery for that that warm and fuzzy FA Cup kind of feeling:
Some essential half-time reading:
FA Cup half-time scores
Accrington 0-0 Ipswich
Aston Villa 0-1 Swansea
Bolton 0-1 Walsall
Chelsea 0-0 Nottingham Forest
Derby 0-1 Southampton
Everton 2-1 Lincoln
Fleetwood 0-1 AFC Wimbledon
Gillingham 0-0 Cardiff
Middlesbrough 0-0 Peterborough
44 min: Loftus-Cheek looked close to tears as he headed down the tunnel. After having to be so patient for his chance, this was not the afternoon he had planned. He had been limping before being forced off. Just when there was a sniff of regular game-time, with a lot of big games ahead, he is forced off.
Updated
41 min: Eden Hazard is on for Ruben Loftus-Cheek at Stamford Bridge. Loftus-Cheek was fouled for the missed penalty and it appears the England midfielder has a back problem. Not the rest Mr Sarri had planned for Hazard. Meanwhile, Ross Barkley is shown a yellow card for bringing down Joao Carvalho on halfway.
35 min: A couple of half-chances for Peterborough up at Middlesbrough. Tony Pulis could do without defeat to the League One side. Siriki Dembele dropped an effort just wide of a post before Ivan Toney’s header sailed over the bar. Elsewhere, Lovre Kalinic, on debut, does well to scramble Connor Roberts’ effort round the post at Villa Park, where Swansea lead 1-0. In League Two, Colin Calderwood’s Cambridge lead Stevenage.
Updated
30 min: Luke Steele saves Cesc Fàbregas’s penalty! The Spaniard, captaining Chelsea on his final appearance for the club makes a hash of things from 12 yards. It is a poor spot-kick, with Steele saving low down to his right-hand side. It was a stuttered run-up by Fàbregas (why do so many players do those?) and half of the Forest team poured into the box before the midfielder had even shot at goal. That was not how Fàbregas envisaged bowing out.
Updated
GOAL! Everton 2-1 Lincoln (Bostwick, 28)
Michael Bostwick pulls a goal back for the League Two side. Meanwhile, Chelsea have a penalty at Stamford Bridge, with Fox fouling Loftus-Cheek. Michael O’Connor’s free kick is headed at Jordon Pickford by Jason Shackell. The Everton goalkeeper can’t hold it and Bostwick slams home the rebound.
Updated
24 min: Gillingham have hacked a Nathaniel Mendez-Laing effort off the line to keep things goalless at Priestfield. Down in League Two, Bury are ahead at Huish Park. It goes from bad to worse for Darren Way, who has garnered only one win from his last 17 matches in charge. His team were 21st at kick-off. Nicky Maynard, previously of Bristol City, opens the scoring with his 10th goal of the season.
22 min: Chelsea are giving Nottingham Forest a hard time at Stamford Bridge. Luke Steele mad a stunning early save to deny Alvaro Morata from point-blank range before the Forest midfielder Claudio Yacob did brilliantly to block a shot from Callum Hudson-Odoi, the in-demand teenager. Davide Zappacosta has also had an effort deflected on to the roof of the net from distance.
Updated
GOAL! Bolton 0-1 Walsall (Cook, 19)
Andy Cook strikes, sweeping home Matt Jarvis’s cross. Jarvis joined on loan from Norwich earlier this week and has made an instant impact. That is Cook’s 12th goal of the season following a summer move from Tranmere. He has scored in all three rounds of this season’s FA Cup.
Updated
GOAL! Fleetwood 0-1 AFC Wimbledon (Barcham, 16)
Andy Barcham puts Wally Downes’s side ahead.
Updated
GOAL! Everton 2-0 Lincoln (Bernard, 14)
Barely a whiff of celebration from the Brazilian. Everton double their lead at Goodison Park and, what seemed a potential banana skin for Marco Silva’s side, now seems anything but. It was a lovely deft finish by the Everton forward, who has made a lively start. Can Danny Cowley’s side fight their way back in?
Updated
GOAL! Everton 1-0 Lincoln (Lookman, 12)
Leighton Baines dinks the ball in to the back post, and Ademola Lookman nods in beyond Josh Vickers in the Lincoln goal. That is Lookman’s first goal for Everton since December 2017 v Apollon Limassol, all of 394 days ago.
Updated
GOAL! Derby 0-1 Southampton (Redmond, 4)
Nathan Redmond helps Ralph Hasenhüttl’s men to a flying start. Redmond breaks free and hits a low, left-footed shot from 18 yards that’s heading towards the far corner before being deflected in via Richard Keogh, the Derby skipper.
Updated
GOAL! Aston Villa 0-1 Swansea (Baker-Richardson, 2)
A dream start for Graham Potter’s side. Swansea are without injured talisman Oli McBurnie in Birmingham but Courtney Baker-Richardson, the 23-year-old has scored on his seventh start for the club. Meanwhile, Sunderland lead at Charlton early on in League One. Luke O’Nien has struck at the Valley.
Updated
Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep!
The 3pms under way around the grounds.
Up at the Riverside, Dimi Konstantopoulos becomes Middlesbrough’s oldest ever player at the age of 40 years and 37 days. Up front, Britt Assombalonga starts while there is a debut for Rajiv van La Parra after arriving on loan. Meanwhile, Aaron Ramsdale, half the age of the aforementioned Boro keeper, makes his debut in goal for AFC Wimbledon after joining on loan from Bournemouth. Neil Warnock makes seven changes to the Cardiff side beaten by Tottenham on New Year’s Day as the Premier League club visit League One Gillingham in the FA Cup third round.
Some things to look for over the next 24 hours or so:
Team news news: Maurizio Sarri gives Ethan Ampadu and Callum Hudson-Odoi a runout at Stamford Bridge, while Cesc Fàbregas captains Chelsea on his final appearance for the club, before a move to Monaco. Everton, who have been a bit of a shambles of late, have gone strong at home to League Two leaders Lincoln, with Gylfi Sigurdsson among those starting at Goodison. At Villa Park, there is a debut for January recruit, the Croatia goalkeeper Lovre Kalinic but Tammy Abraham is absent. The striker is reportedly inching closer to a loan move to Wolves. At Derby, Southampton have stuck by Angus Gunn in goal, preferred to Alex McCarthy and the youngster Callum Slattery starts against Frank Lampard’s side.

Preamble
First things first, there are just the 10 matches at the traditional long-lost time of three o’clock. It is a sorry state of affairs for the oldest national competition in world football, a result of the Football Association’s whopping new six-year £820m deal with overseas rights holders, one that the governing body says will benefit the grassroots game. Every one of the 32 third-round ties strewn across this weekend will be screened worldwide, which is brilliant in terms of a global reach, for those fans in the Middle East plugged into Brentford v Oxford and Bolton v Walsall, but perhaps not quite so great for the traditionalists of this world. And while it is saddening, we need not be totally downbeat for there are still some seemingly cracking ties on this afternoon’s menu, including Lincoln’s trip to Goodison Park and Nottingham Forest at Chelsea, in what will be Cesc Fàbregas’s final game for the club. The focus is already on under-pressure Stoke manager Gary Rowett, who takes his side to Shrewsbury this afternoon, but will sharpen should his team slip-up. By the time we hit 3pm, seven ties will be nearing conclusion, with another 10 teams rocking up at stadiums across the country ready to do battle in the late kick-offs this evening.
FA Cup third-round fixtures, all 3pm (GMT):
Accrington v Ipswich Town, Aston Villa v Swansea City, Bolton Wanderers v Walsall, Brentford v Oxford United, Chelsea v Nottingham Forest, Derby County v Southampton, Everton v Lincoln City, Fleetwood Town v AFC Wimbledon, Gillingham v Cardiff City, Middlesbrough v Peterborough United
