Arsenal’s trip to Nottingham Forest has been selected for live broadcast by BT Sport and will be played on Sunday 7 January.
The match will be a 4pm kick-off and comes three days after we entertain Chelsea in the league.
We played Forest in last season’s EFL Cup, spanking them 4-0 courtesy of Lucas Perez’s brace and strikes by Granit Xhaka and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
The Gunners have enjoyed unparalleled success in English football’s favourite knockout competition winning the tournament 13 times so far.
Coming from behind to beat City, completely outplaying Chelsea in the final… last seasons FA Cup was deadly! More of the same this year please.
Hear, hear! I’m looking forward to Wenger making it a magnificent seven of FA Cup triumphs!
You don’t have to wait. He already has.
Yep, of course he has. I’m a year behind the times. I shall sit in the corner facing the wall for the rest of today.
We play Chelsea on Wednesday so 4 days before.
