Chelsea will face Morecambe FC in the third round of the [FA Cup](http://www.sbnation.com/fa-cup), set to be played the second weekend of January at Stamford Bridge.
If this sounds familiar, that’s because it’s the exact same tie as we had four years ago, almost down to the day, in 2021, when Frank Lampard was still the manager — he would be sacked a couple weeks later, though not because of the 4-1 victory in this fixture. (Don’t worry, Enzo, I’m sure you’re safe!)
In any case, the tie is obviously quite favorable: Morecambe are back in League Two (they were up in League One for a couple seasons in the meantime) and in the lower half of that table, even.
The draw for the third round of the 2024-25 FA Cup is as follows. See if you can find the marquee matchup of the round.
