There will be four all-Premier League ties in the third round of the FA Cup, after the draw was conducted on Monday night.
The heavyweights all avoided the seven non-league sides in the draw, but there will be some interesting ties nonetheless, when the FA Cup resumes in the first week of January.
Jaap Stam returns to Manchester United as Reading manager. United are the current holders and Jose Mourinho would have to see off the former United defender.
Manchester City visit West Ham, Arsenal travel to Preston, champions Leicester City will face Everton at Goodison Park and Tottenham Hotspur host Aston Villa.
