HOT PICK: EVERTON
Top Picks: Bolton.
Additions: Middlesbrough, Sheffield Wed.
Match analysis are as follows:
1) Everton (-1 1/2 on AH)
Ratings: 9.5/10
Everton travels to Macclesfield Town knowing that a win is vital to maintain their recent upsurge of form. They have won 3 of their last 4, all without conceding a goal! Stats reveal a 100% record to date for teams who have not conceded in their last 4 and giving handicap. The gulf in class will be apparent in this match and Everton, led by the classy Mikel Arteta, will definitely give the League Two side a lesson or two in this cup tie.
2) Bolton (+1/4 on AH)
Ratings: 8.5/10
Sunderland welcomes Bolton to the Stadium of Light in one of the many 3rd round ties for the English FA Cup. Both teams are blowing hot and cold as far as form is concerned, but Bolton seems to be the more consistent side. A closer look at their away record will reveal an average of 2 goals a match in their last 5 away. Sunderland have not scored in their last 2, and stats are giving them a meagre 20% chance of winning this tie. On the other hand, Bolton has a 63.64% to snatch at least a point here. High chance of a draw though as Bolton have not drawn in their last 12 matches.
