Manchester United’s 12-year run of televised FA Cup matches will be ended next month, after TV companies elected NOT to show their third round tie with Derby County.

United’s last 58 matches in the competition have all been shown on TV.

The Red Devils have been a staple choice, particularly with terrestrial broadcasters due to their fan base and pressure to show the biggest clubs live.

The last time they weren’t selected to play on TV was in 2005, when they hosted Exeter City - in match that ended goalless.

Third round weekend will kick off with Liverpool vs Everton on Friday January 5, live on the BBC.

On Saturday lunchtime Fleetwood or non-league Hereford will face Leicester City on the BBC before BT Sport show Norwich vs Chelsea later that day.

Shrewsbury vs West Ham (BBC) and Nottingham Forest vs holders Arsenal (BT Sport) will be shown on Sunday.

The live fixtures will be wrapped up with Crystal Palace’s trip to Brighton on the Monday evening - where video referees will be used for the first time in English football.
