All 32 third round matches – including the Merseyside derby between Liverpool and Everton, Manchester United’s trip to Wolves and Leeds United’s visit to Arsenal – will kick-off at the new times.

So the traditional kick-off times of 3pm, 12:15pm and 7:45pm will now take start at 3:01pm, 12:16pm and 7:46pm respectively.

Any replays will not be subject to the change.

The FA released a statement to support the move which read: “It is hoped that the initiative will raise awareness of the importance of looking after our mental health, with 60 seconds representing just the first step in the journey to improved wellbeing.

“During the minute delay, fans will be encouraged to consider the positive impact 60 seconds can have on their own wellbeing or in supporting a friend or family member.”

The Heads Up campaign is spearheaded by Prince William and harnesses the influence and popularity of football to encourage more people – particularly men – to feel comfortable talking about, and taking action to improve their mental health.

And to recognise that mental fitness is just as important as physical fitness.
