Dover Athletic v Crystal Palace
Arsenal v Hull (maybe)
AFC Wimbledon v Liverpool
Blyth Spartans v Birmingham
Burnley v Tottenham (possibly)
Everton v West Ham (possibly)
Accrington/Yeovil v Manchester United

The most likely to be on TV games

Is it just me or do City and Chelsea always get piss easy draws?

If you take league placings as a co-efficient (and combine them for both teams to create a ranking), then our game is the highest ranked game of the 3rd Rd I think.

Yeah but we're not Man U (10 years of FA Cup matches televised and counting) or Liverpoo (every away game since heaven knows when (I think the back end of season 12-13 but I'm not sure - including probably all their pre-season games as well) and every game from early January to mid October home and away I believe). Arsenal and City suffer by comparison no matter how attractive the game - the formula seems to be:

United v almost anyone
RS v anyone including South Garston Schoolboy Reserves
Arsenal, Chelsea, City and Spurs if it's remotely interesting
Everton if they are playing a decent team (nearly always - and often away from home)
The rest - to make up the required number per season.

City don't, Chelsea certainly always do. ALWAYS a home tie against Championship side, guaranteed.
