Elsewhere in FA Cup team news, Wigan coach Shaun Maloney is not playing ball. He’s picked Steven Sessegnon on the Latics’ bench, whereas Marco Silva has plumped for the other twin, Ryan Sessegnon, in the Fulham starting lineup at The Brick Community Stadium.

A pretty proud Saturday lunchtime for teams in east London, all told. There is a surprise in the other early FA Cup kickoff, albeit not a dramatic one given that Leeds have fielded a second string against Millwall. Still, few would have backed to be leading 2-0 at Elland Road at the 90-minute mark. Millwall’s place in round five seems secure thanks to Femi Azeez’s double either side of half-time. For Leeds, it will be back to the grindstone in terms of their promotion hunt. Leyton Orient v Manchester City has been quite the cup tie. And Kevin de Bruyne’s class of the bench may have just sealed it for last year’s FA Cup finalists. PreambleThe FA Cup early knockings haven’t really delivered in recent years – 2023 and 2024 felt like duds in that respect – but after the epic Tamworth v Tottenham and Arsenal v Man United Sunday in the third round, there’s a bit of justified hype around this year’s fourth round. And even the 3pm kickoffs not chosen for UK broadcast have enough intrigue to fulfil our insatiable appetites. Everton v Bournemouth is a tasty clash between two in-form top flight sides; Southampton v Burnley is a meaty encounter of lower Prem and upper Champ; while the two Sessegnon twins Steven and Ryan will dine at opposite ends of the same table during Wigan v Fulham. Elsewhere, there’s a quartet of Championship games, including Norwich versus newly-managerless Derby. There’s a decent programme of League One and League Two action too, as well as the Scottish Cup fifth round and the usual Bundesliga fare. You wouldn’t want to follow it anywhere else, would you? Tuck in and enjoy. Team news will follow. Source link Posted: 2025-02-08 15:32:26 |
