Liverpool will face Accrington Stanley in the FA Cup’s third round.
Monday’s draw for the world’s most famous club cup competition saw Arne Slot’s side handed a tie against the League Two outfit on home soil.
Both clubs previously faced off just once in their history, fittingly at the same stage of the competition in 1956 when the Reds emerged as 2-0 winners.
Accrington midfielder Liam Coyle is a Liverpool academy graduate who left in summer 2021 after the previous 12 years in his boyhood team’s ranks.
The Premier League leaders’ meeting with the ‘Owd Reds will be sandwiched between clashes against Manchester United and Nottingham Forest.
All ties are set to be played on the weekend of January 11, 2025.
