The third round of the FA Cup this season will only see two all-EPL ties. The first takes place tomorrow afternoon, between Newcastle and Blackburn. The other tie takes place on Sunday afternoon, between Manchester City and Manchester United.

The most eye-catching third round tie involving an EPL club is the one that will be taking place tomorrow afternoon at Goodison Park. EPL side Everton will be taking on conference side Tamworth.
