Crystal Palace will take on Millwall at The Den in the FA Cup third round following the draw on Monday evening.

Matt Woosnam shared the news on Twitter, which duly resulted in a number of Eagles fans giving their thoughts on the all-south London tie.

Patrick Vieira’s side lost their first game of December to Manchester United on Sunday and still have five Premier League fixtures before the New Year.

However, once 2022 comes around, the Eagles will be thinking about a cup tie with the Championship side after taking on West Ham on New Year’s Day.

Palace and Millwall last met back in 2013 in the Championship, the year that the Eagles earned promotion to the Premier League. They last faced off in the FA Cup way back in January 1985 and will meet again between January 7 and 10.

Palace fans react

Here is what these Palace fans had to say in reply to Woosnam’s post regarding the draw, with one labelling it as ‘exciting’.
