Stags saw off Guiseley 3-0 yesterday to book their place and will be hoping for a glamour draw against the likes of Manchester United (ball 25), Tottenham (ball 40), Liverpool (ball 23), Chelsea (ball 13), Manchester City (ball 24) or Arsenal (ball two).

The last time Mansfield reached the third round in 2012/13, they drew Liverpool at home, losing a close game 2-1.

Stags boss Steve Evans has already said he fancies Spurs or Manchester United away or the lowest ranked side at home, while yesterday’s hat-trick hero Jimmy Spencer also wants United away.

Neighbours Nottingham Forest are ball 30 and Notts County are ball 61.

The draw takes place before the final second round game between non-league Slough Town and League One side Rochdale tonight.

Full coverage will be live on BBC Two and BT Sport 1 from 7pm.

For this round 44 Premier League and Championship teams join the draw along with the 20 teams that progressed from the second round.

That means that a total of 64 teams will be in the hat, making 32 third round fixtures.
