Crystal Palace shared details on Thursday regarding their FA Cup third-round tie with south London rivals Millwall in the New Year.
And, as to be expected, a number of Palace fans have been reacting to the news on social media.
The two sides were paired together in Monday’s draw and are set to face off for the first time since 2013.
It has now been confirmed that Patrick Vieira’s side will travel to The Den on Saturday, January 8, with a 12:45pm kick-off. The match will be broadcast live on ITV 1 and ticket details for the game will be announced shortly.
The Eagles first need to navigate a busy festive period in the Premier League, though, with six fixtures prior to the trip to the Championship side.
