Manchester United have discovered their fate in this year’s FA Cup, with Erik ten Hag’s men looking to win the storied cup for the 13th time – matching Arsenal’s record.

The Reds have not won the competition since 2016 when Jesse Lingard’s added-time winner ensured United lifted the trophy for the twelfth time.

The draw for this year’s third round was held earlier on Monday and unsurprisingly, United have been handed another all-Premier League tie to kick things off.

Everton will make the trip to Old Trafford in January and fans have reacted on social media, expressing their dismay at once again avoiding teams in the lower divisions.
