The Football Association has confirmed the dates and kick-off times of Manchester City’s and Manchester United’s FA Cup third round ties.
The draw was made at Old Trafford on Monday and it pitted City against League Two outfit Salford City and United against Premier League counterparts Arsenal. City will welcome the Ammies to the Etihad Stadium for a 5.45pm kick-off on Saturday, January 11. The contest will be screened live on both BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
United, who defeated City in last season’s final, winning 2-1 at Wembley, will travel to the Emirates Stadium a little under 24 hours later, locking horns with the Gunners at 3pm. That encounter will also be shown live on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
