NOTTINGHAM FOREST and Huddersfield Town have a golden chance to reach the FA Cup quarter-final and a glamour home draw against Liverpool is the prize for their Monday night clash.
Both Forest and Town won't have much time to prepare for the games, both were on action on Friday night in the Championship.
Nottingham Forest grabbed a morale-boosting last gasp equaliser at Sheffield United to claim a creditable 1-1 draw.
While Huddersfield Town cruised to a 3-0n win over Peterborough United with the minimum of fuss where they were two goals up inside seven minutes.
There's a ten point gap between them in the table with the Yorkshire side pushing for an automatic promotion spot and Forest realistically looking for a promotion play-off place.
It's something of a miracle Forest are as high as they are after an atrocious start to the season, but Steve Cooper has turned them around.
And they've been particularly impressive in the FA Cup having dumped Arsenal and Leicester City out of the competition at the City Ground.
Huddersfield have also won at Premier League opposition after winning at Burnley and they have also won against fellow Championship side Barnsley.
So both teams will be desperate to earn the right for a crack at Jurgen Klopp's men.
How the bookies view it
Nottingham Forest are firm favourites at around evens although a few firms are pushing their neck out to go odds-against like 888Sport at 21/20.
Huddersfield Town are 3/1 with Betfred and SBK have the draw at 21/10.
Recent head to heads
Curiously, there have been two away wins between the sides this season and below is footage of Huddersfield's 1-0 win at the City Ground in December. Huddersfield have won on their last two trips to Nottingham.
Players to watch
With Lewis Grabban injured, Forest will be pinning their hopes on Welsh striker Brennan Johnson who hase been in fine form recently with six goals in his last eight games. He's 13/5 to score anytime with Unibet.
Danny Ward has 11 goals for Huddersfield Town this season and scored against Fulham in their impressive win there recently. He's 10/3 with bet365 to score anytime.
Anything else catch the eye?
Huddersfield look to be seriously underestimated by the layers here. They have already won at the City Ground and are in fantastic form after four wins in a row in the Championship which is an extremely tough thing to manage in that league.
They've also scored at least two goals in all of those games and the 5/2 for them to manage it in Nottingham with bet365 appeals.
Forest love a corner – they've managed 12 and 11 on their own in their last two games. And with the bar set low at only over 9/5 at evens with BetVictor, it looks a steal.
