FA Cup third round draw: Brighton and Hove Albion to welcome Sheffield Wednesday

Albion will welcome Sheffield Wednesday, who are ninth in the Championship, to the Amex Stadium in a tie to be played over the first weekend in January.

Brighton last played Wednesday in the FA Cup in 1983 when they beat them 2-1 in the semi-final played at Highbury.

Albion went on to the final at Wembley and drew 2-2 with Manchester United but lost out 4-0 in the replay.

Last season Brighton enjoyed a run to the FA Cup semi-final but were narrowly beaten 1-0 by Manchester City at Wembley.

Albion travel to Arsenal on Thursday in the Premier League. They also face Wolves, Crystal Palace, Sheffield United, Tottenham, Bournemouth, and Chelsea in the Premier League before their cup clash with Garry Monk's Sheffield Wednesday.
