The FA Cup third round draw has thrown up a potential classic, pitting Merseyside rivals Liverpool and Everton against each other at Anfield. 

The draw was one of derbies for the Premier League sides, with Brighton and Crystal Palace getting a chance to improve on the dull 0-0 draw they played out last week. 

A handful of upsets look on the cards, with bright Championship side Fulham hosting a hit-and-miss Southampton team and struggling West Ham traveling to Shrewsbury. 

The lowest ranked team left in the competition are Slough Town, who face League One Rochdale at their Berkshire home after the conclusion of the draw on Monday night. The winner of that tie will face Doncaster at the Keepmoat Stadium.
