For the second time in three seasons, Liverpool will play against Shrewsbury Town in the FA Cup after the draw was made for the third round.

The two teams met in the fourth round back in 2020 with the first game being a 2-2 draw at New Meadow.

Liverpool had led 2-0 through goals from Curtis Jones and an own goal from Donald Love before a Jason Cummings brace earned the Shrews a replay at Anfield.

The replay was famous for the fact that Jurgen Klopp had kept his promise to his players that they would be given some rest during the winter break hence the game was taken by Neil Critchley and his under 23s.

The Reds ran out 1-0 winners after another own goal scored in the 75th minute.

The tie will be played at Anfield between Friday, 7th January and Monday, 10th January 2022 and Liverpool will be without Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Naby Keita who will all be in action at the Africa Cup of Nations.
