Our Emirates FA Cup campaign will begin with a third-round tie against Oxford United at Kassam Stadium.
We were paired with the U's during the draw which took place at Anfield on Monday evening, which will mean we'll head to the League One side as we aim to lift the trophy for the 15th time in our history.
We last faced Oxford in the competition back in 2003 at the same stage, when we won 2-0 at Highbury thanks to a Dennis Bergkamp strike and an own goal, in what would prove to be our first step towards winning the competition that campaign.
While exact dates and kick-off times will be confirmed in due course, third-round ties are due to take place between Friday, January 6 and Monday, January 9.
