The FA Cup second round returns with a packed slate of games to savour – whether you tune in live or wait for the highlights.

10 non-league teams are in action this weekend, including Horsham, who have earned a reprieve despite being defeated by Barnsley in a first-round replay.

Sixth-tier Horsham put in a terrific performance to draw 3-3 in the opening encounter before losing the replay 3-0, but Barnsley have been expelled from the competition due to fielding an ineligible player.

Fans will be keen to tune in for highlights of all the games, especially if they can’t tune in for live coverage provided by BBC and ITV across the course of the round.

As the competition progresses, interest will continue to rise as Premier League giants enter the bear pit with hungry underdogs aiming to claim gigantic scalps.

RadioTimes.com brings you all the details about FA Cup highlights in 2023/24.
