Barnet vs. Newport (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

National League outfit Barnet will be bidding to use home advantage against Newport County on Tuesday evening to book their spot in the third round of the FA Cup.

The two teams locked horns at Rodney Parade on December 2 but could not be separated, with a 1-1 draw meaning that a replay is required to determine which side will progress to round three.

We say: Barnet 1-2 Newport County

The first meeting between the two sides last weekend was a tight affair, and we are expecting this match to follow suit. A case can be made for both to win it, but we just have a feeling that Newport County will be able to edge a close contest in order to advance to the third round of the competition.

Port Vale vs. Stevenage (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

On Tuesday, Port Vale will welcome fellow League One side Stevenage to Vale Park for an FA Cup second-round replay.

The winner of the midweek cup tie will go on to face National League outfit Maidstone United at the start of January.

We say: Port Vale 1-2 Stevenage

Stevenage will be in a confident mood after extending their unbeaten run at the weekend, and we think they will follow up Saturday's narrow victory with another away win in Tuesday's cup tie.

Crewe vs. Bristol Rovers (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

In-form League Two side Crewe Alexandra host Bristol Rovers of League One in the FA Cup second round on Saturday.

The hosts are well in the mix for automatic promotion, while Rovers remain without a permanent manager following the sacking of Joey Barton over a month ago.

We say: Crewe Alexandra 1-1 Bristol Rovers

Crewe are in excellent form and have proven difficult to beat over the past two months, even against sides in the division above.

With Mangan potentially coming to the end of his spell in caretaker charge of Bristol Rovers, seeing them into the third round would be a huge achievement after a more-than-respectable set of results in charge, but this looks like it could go to a replay.
