It’s FA Cup third round weekend, with Crystal Palace among the Premier League clubs joining the competition at this stage. The Eagles will be looking to avoid a cup upset when they host League One side Stockport County.

Palace are unbeaten in their last three Premier League games, having came from behind to draw 1-1 with Chelsea in their last outing. The game against Stockport could see Oliver Glasner make some changes to his lineup with one eye on Wednesday’s Premier League match against Leicester City.

The clash against Stockport is just the second time that the two sides have met in the competition. Palace came out as 2-1 winners in the second roud back in 1993, with the last meeting in all competitions seeing the Eagles win 1-0 in the second tier back in January 2002.
