With a break from Premier League action, the FA Cup takes centre stage today.

It's the third round of the competition and the Match of the Day is the north London derby.

These days clubs tend to rest their top players but no matter what quality of player takes to the pitch at the Emirates, a spicy affair is guaranteed.

Of course Arsenal sit proudly on top of the League but Spurs look a rejuvenated outfit under new boss Tim Sherwood and a shock of sorts is on the cards.

That's the late kick off at 5.15.

The early start at 12.15 sees Manchester City make the trip to Ewood Park to play Blackburn Rovers.

City will definitely make wholesale changes for this one.

There's an all Premier League affair at Newcastle as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer takes charge of Cardiff City for the first time.

The Norwegian revealed the Bluebirds will try to attack at every opportunity.

Other all Premier League ties feature Chris Hughton's Norwich City at home to Fulham while Crystal Palace make the trip to West Brom.

Aston Villa have a banana skin of a tie against League One Sheffield United at Villa Park.

Everton are at home to QPR - Hull City make the trip to Middlesbrough - it's Southampton against Burnley at St Marys and Stoke City welcome Leicester to the Britannia.

 

There's only two matches in the Scottish Premiership with games at Motherwell and Ross County.
