Championship side Huddersfield have been eliminated at the third round stage of the FA Cup in each of the last two campaigns.

But in the current format of the competition (since 1925-26), only QPR (48) have been eliminated in the third round more often than Plymouth (46).

Plymouth, currently sitting 15th in League One, have won two of their last eight matches in all competitions, while Huddersfield have won four of their last nine during that time.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang pinches it off the toes of Jamaal Lascelles but it skids away from the Arsenal forward and out for a throw. No real chances of note so far.

There was a lot of rigidity in the Arsenal side when they were in their bad run of form but it's good to see runners from the midfield areas going past the strikers and driving forward in the last few games.

Chance for Newcastle as Arsenal give it away to Joelinton in midfield, the forward drives into space but then takes an age to make a decision over his pass before forcing it wide to Andy Carroll, who takes on a shot from a tight angle and it deflects off a red and white leg into the arms of Bernd Leno.

This promises to be an intriguing battle between two sides hoping to gain promotion from the Championship.

Brentford, currently sat fourth in the league table, went on a 16-game unbeaten run prior to defeat against Tottenham in this week’s Carabao Cup semi-final.

Now, Brentford are looking to reach the fourth round of the FA Cup for the third successive season.

Middlesbrough, sitting seventh in the Championship table, did a round of Covid-19 tests earlier than planned in order to fit in a self-isolation period if needed so they could field as strong a team as possible.

They still have a mixture of under-23s and first team players though, while Brentford boss Thomas Frank is absent through Covid-19 so Neil MacFarlane is in charge.

It’s the first time since 1964 that these two sides have met in the competition.

This is why it's difficult for Newcastle, there's only Miguel Almiron who wants to run in behind Arsenal. If he keeps coming for the ball, Newcastle have no one else to make the runs. He has to be patient.

A little bit sloppy from Nicolas Pepe. It was a good ball by Mohamed Elneny to break through that tight Newcastle line.

Arsenal, as you would expect, are playing it out from the back nicely and move the ball through midfield well, but Nicolas Pepe misjudges his touch on the right and the ball squirts out of play behind him.

Good play from Arsenal. Reiss Nelson is getting into dangerous areas. It's been a really good pace to the game but that's the only way to warm up!

Blackpool to take first.

And it's SAVED by David Button!
