**Leicester City have learned who they will face in the FA Cup Third Round.**

The draw for the competition was made on Monday night and the Foxes will be hoping to string a good cup run together and even potentially go on and lift the trophy for the second time in the club’s history.

Leicester haven’t won the FA Cup since 2021 and managed to reach the quarter finals, only to lose out to Chelsea.
