Watford will host Championship side Burton Albion in the third round of the FA Cup next month.

The Hornets, who reached the semi-finals last season, will enjoy home comforts in their first foray into this year's competition, on the weekend of January 6-9.

Burton are enjoying their first ever campaign in the second tier this season, and have never met the Hornets in a competitive fixture.

They have not won an FA Cup game for three years, their last victory coming in a second-round replay over Fleetwood Town in December 2013.
