Blackpool vs. Arsenal: FA Cup 2019 Odds, Live Stream, TV Info

Arsenal travel to Blackpool on Saturday to begin their 2019 FA Cup campaign against the same opposition they beat 2-1 in the Carabao Cup fourth round back in October.

While the Gunners' 2-1 win over League One opposition came at the Emirates Stadium, they will be at Bloomfield Road for the third round of a competition they have won a record 13 times.

Playing away from home hasn't stopped Arsenal being firm favourites for the tie, even though head coach Unai Emery is likely rotate his options. He'll have to be careful how much rotating he does, though, if the Gunners are going to avoid another third-round exit to lower-league opposition, after last season's 4-2 defeat away to Nottingham Forest.
