It’s the third round of the FA Cup to replace league fixtures this weekend and we will see an increased followed due to the Premier League teams joining the fold. We have a healthy presence of interesting games with the chance of a few giant killings over the course of the round.
A Closer Look
That’s great news for accumulator backers and punters who enjoy seeking out the value. Pick through the third-round betting and put together a few predictions to create an acca. Big prices for small stakes is the aim there. If you’re more of a value hunter, aim for an upset, researching form, injury news and managers who enjoy blooding youth in the early rounds.
Brighton enjoys home advantage against Sheffield Wednesday of the Championship. The locals are expected to ensure their name is in the hat for the next round, but they know there were far easier games out there. They have drawn a banana skin fixture at the earliest opportunity and will have to work hard if they are to progress to round four and keep their dreams alive.
Both Teams Eager to Win
Sheffield Wednesday will board the team bus without fear. There’s no doubt they are up against it here but if they play to the best of their abilities and hope the home dressing room take the challenge lightly, the visitors have half a chance. That’s all they can ask. Who will come out on top and win this match? Both teams will be eager to avoid a replay.
