Lineups confirmed as FA Cup holders face non-league side
FA Cup winners Crystal Palace begin their defence at non-league opposition as they take on Macclesfield in a lunchtime kick-off.
Palace beat Manchester City at Wembley back in May for their first major trophy.
Oliver Glasner would love another cup run but has a stretched squad and has made plenty of changes.

Macclesfield play in the National League North – the sixth tier of English football.
