The Emirates FA Cup Third Round Proper draw is made at 7pm tonight, live on BBC Two, from the Wales Sports Awards in Cardiff. Brentford are ball number seven in the draw, and as with all Sky Bet Championship and Premier League clubs, exempted until this round.

The non-league club certain to be one of Brentford’s potential opponents are Easteigh, with Whitehawk, Grimsby Town, and Salford City needing replays before they can dream of a Third Round glamour tie. Brentford will aim to reach the Fourth Round since the 2012/2013 season, when Uwe Rosler’s side went out to Chelsea after a replay at Stamford Bridge.

Stoke City and Everton are the only two Premier League sides that Brentford have never played an FA Cup tie with. All Third round ties will be played during 8-11 January 2016.

The draw numbers are: 1 AFC Bournemouth  2 Arsenal 3 Aston Villa 4 Birmingham City 5 Blackburn Rovers 6 Bolton Wanderers 7 Brentford 8 Brighton and Hove Albion 9 Bristol City 10 Burnley 11 Cardiff City 12 Charlton Athletic 13 Chelsea 14 Crystal Palace 15 Derby County 16 Everton 17 Fulham 18 Huddersfield Town 19 Hull City 20 Ipswich Town 21 Leeds United 22 Leicester City 23 Liverpool 24 Manchester City 25 Manchester United 26 Middlesbrough 27 Milton Keynes Dons 28 Newcastle United 29 Norwich City 30 Nottingham Forest 31 Preston North End 32 Queens Park Rangers 33 Reading 34 Rotherham United 35 Sheffield Wednesday 36 Southampton 37 Stoke City 38 Sunderland 39 Swansea City 40 Tottenham Hotspur 41 Watford 42 West Bromwich Albion 43 West Ham United 44 Wolverhampton Wanderers 45 Bradford City 46 Newport County 47 Peterborough United 48 Portsmouth 49 Eastleigh 50 Northampton Town 51 Exeter City  52 Doncaster Rovers 53 Grimsby Town or Shrewsbury Town 54 Yeovil Town  55 Bury 56 Carlisle United 57 Leyton Orient or Scunthorpe United 58 Wycombe Wanderers 59 Colchester United 60 Chesterfield or Walsall 61 Sheffield United 62 Salford City or Hartlepool United 63 Dagenham and Redbridge or Whitehawk 64 Oxford United
