Get ready for an exciting weekend of football action and some potential accumulator wins! The FA Cup third round is upon us, and we've got some great tips to keep you entertained.
This week's acca features a mix of FA Cup and league fixtures, with some intriguing matchups and potential upsets on the cards. Let's dive right in!
Southampton's Chance to Shine
Our first pick is Southampton, who travel to Doncaster in the FA Cup. This is a golden opportunity for the Saints to get back to winning ways. Doncaster, sitting second from bottom in League One, are on a poor run of form with just one league win in their last 17 games. Southampton should be confident of a win here.
Fulham's Cup Ambition
In the top cup competition, Fulham will be eyeing a deep run, and their journey starts with a home fixture against Middlesbrough. Marco Silva's side reached the quarter-finals last season and have shown their cup pedigree. They also made it to the same stage of the Carabao Cup this season. Can they continue their impressive cup form?
League Leaders on a Roll
We've got two league leaders featured in our acca. Cardiff, currently top of League One, travel to Leyton Orient. Cardiff's recent form has been impressive, scoring at least three goals in four of their last six games against teams in the bottom half of the table.
Bromley, another league leader, face a tricky away trip to Tranmere. Bromley have been on a remarkable run, winning ten out of their last eleven games in League Two. Tranmere, on the other hand, have lost three of their previous five league fixtures.
Home Advantage
Two home teams have been added to our long list this week. Burnley, who have been struggling for wins lately, host Millwall in the FA Cup. This could be a chance for the Clarets to regain their winning touch, while Millwall might be more focused on their promotion push.
In League One, Bradford, aiming to keep the pressure on Cardiff, host Rotherham. Bradford have been formidable at home this season, losing just once and winning nine out of twelve home fixtures.
