When is the FA Cup third-round draw? TV details and ball numbers info as Newcastle United await opponents

Newcastle United will learn who they will face in the third round of the FA Cup next week on Monday, 28 November.

The third-round games are also slated to take place on the weekend of Saturday, 7 January.

Last term saw the Magpies dumped out of the competition in embarrassing fashion by Cambridge United, who beat Eddie Howe's side 1-0 at St James' Park thanks to a Joe Ironside goal.

While the FA Cup has not provided Newcastle fans with much joy in recent times, they could look to seriously target the competition this term in their hunt for silverware.

They are already into the last 16 of the Carabao Cup where they will face off against Bournemouth at St James' in what will be their first competitive action following the World Cup break.

Spirits are high on Tyneside right now and there's no reason why Newcastle should not go all out to try and win one of the two domestic cup competitions this season given how well they are performing.
