The third round marks the point at which teams from the Premier League and English Football League (EFL) enter the competition. This means that for the first time, lower-division teams have the opportunity to play against and potentially defeat teams from the top tiers of English football. This can lead to some of the biggest upsets in the competition and adds an element of excitement and unpredictability to the FA Cup.

The third round is the stage at which the number of teams remaining in the competition is reduced to 64. This is the point at which the competition starts to get serious, as the remaining teams are just a few wins away from reaching the later stages and potentially winning the trophy. The third round is also the point at which the "big" teams, such as those in the Premier League, start to take the competition more seriously and field their strongest sides.

For teams from the lower divisions of English football, the FA Cup provides a rare opportunity to test themselves against higher-ranked opposition and potentially cause an upset. The third round is the stage at which these teams are most likely to come up against teams from the Premier League or EFL, and it is an opportunity for them to show their skills on a national stage. It can also be a financial boost for these teams, as they can earn significant prize money and gate receipts from the game.
