Giant Killings in FA Cup: Premier League and Championship Teams to Enter Round Three

The 2023/24 football season features the 143rd edition of the FA Cup, the oldest club competition on the planet.

A total of 732 teams in England and Wales started with a dream of reaching the showpiece at Wembley, but let’s be honest interest in the competition doesn’t really ramp up until Premier League and Championship teams enter the fray in round three.

Manchester City are the defending champions after beating local rivals Manchester United in last season’s final to tick off the second leg of their historic treble.
