Newcastle United have been drawn at home to League One side Cambridge in round three of the FA Cup.
The Magpies have landed what they will consider a great chance to reach the last 32 of the competition having been knocked out at the hands of Premier League Arsenal last season at the Emirates Stadium.
The meeting between the sides will be United's first since the 1992/93 season when the Magpies twice triumphed over the U's in the old First Division.
United are deep in the relegation mire at the moment but Eddie Howe will be keen to see if he can take the Magpies on a cup run in his first season.
The draw was made at Wembley by David Seaman and Faye White as Newcastle looked towards their third round clash in the new year.
FA Cup ties will be played over the weekend of January 8th 2022.
