| Reds get a Manchester Derby in 3rd Round |
This is third time in as many years that the Reds were drawn against one of their fiercest rivals, having lost to Leeds United in 2009/10, and beat Liverpool last year – both scorelines were 1-0 to the respective winners.
They always say that FA Cup always throws up surprises, and this is one of the biggest, as United gets an earlier than expected chance to make amends for the 6-1 loss back in October.
Due to only 15% ticket allocation required by the Football Association, only 7,158 Reds will be able to watch the game inside of the Etihad.
