Probability of FA cup draws (serious question)
Don't think that I'm just messing around...I'm not trying to gamble or anything 
I have been thinking about chances in the FA Cup. In the third round, there are 20 premiership teams and 44 non-premier teams, making a total of 64. What are the chances that no premiership team gets drawn against another premiership team?
