Mansfield Town landed a home tie against League One rivals Wigan Athletic in tonight’s FA Cup Third Round draw.

Stags missed out on the big tie they wanted with a Premier league big gun, but do have a possible route to Round Four, having already won 2-1 at Wigan in October in league action.

This is the fourth time in five years Stags have reached this stage, though last year they fell at the first hurdle with a defeat by Wrexham.

Arsenal v Manchester United is the biggest tie of the round.

But non-league Tamworth at home to Totenham Hotspur is almost certainly set to be a TV pick too.

Fellow National League outfit Dagenham & Redbridge will go to Championship Millwall for a London derby.
