IT'S been 27 years since Everton last won the FA Cup and 13 years since they graced the final but they've a great chance to go deep in to the competition this year with Boreham Wood standing between them and a quarter-final place tonight.
The National League side are four tiers below their Premier League opposition but they've already demonstrated their giant-killing capabilities with victories over AFC Wimbledon and Bournemouth on their way to the fifth round.
The Hertfordshire club are chasing promotion to League Two and are eight points off the pace but their cup exploits mean they've three games in hand on the teams above them so there's potentially a very exciting end of the season lying in wait.
Notably, they boast the best defensive record in the National League, conceding just 17 in 27 and have yet to concede a goal in their epic FA Cup run. At the other end they don't score too many either though and their games average just 2.00 per game. That could point to a low scoring affair at Goodison.
But a lot will depend on how strong Frank Lampard goes with his line-up but his hands will be tied a little with January arrivals Dele Alli, Donny van de Beek and Anwar El Ghazi all cup-tied and Dominic Calvert-Lewin on the treatment table.
As a player, Lampard lifted the trophy four times with Chelsea and he'd love nothing more than to get his hands on it as a manager. At 1/10 Everton are short favourites to take a step closer to Wembley but it might not be as straightforward as the price suggests.
Changes to the Everton line-up plus a stuffy, determined Boreham Wood side could mean it takes a while for the Toffees to break down stubborn opponents and no goal before 23 minutes pays 5/6 at Bet365.

SPORTING VS. FC PORTO (8.45pm)
BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE
BOTH TEAMS 20+ BOOKING POINTS
(11/10, skybet) NAP ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ✅️
Going for the following in tonight’s FA Cup game – Boreham Wood are a side full of tough, experienced and older players who are difficult to play against.
I think there’s an excellent chance of them picking up a few cards in their quest to stop a much better (out of form yes!) and fitter Everton side.
William Hill’s price for a card each half looks way too tempting to ignore:
EVERTON VS. BOREHAM WOOD (8.15pm)
AT LEAST 1 CARD IN EACH HALF
(11/10, williamhill) NAP ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
BW AT LEAST 1 CARD IN EACH HALF
(17/10, williamhill) NB ⭐️⭐️

Just looking through the weekend card and the first game in the EPL catches the eye
Leicester City v Leeds
Leicester City to in at 3/4
Hard to believe Leicester are this price and not to take them on would be criminal.Yes Leicester have had a poor season so far but with Jamie Vardy being inured it’s cost them big time but he’s back and its no coincidence they beat Burnley away midweek Vardy coming off the bench and scoring to seal the win.This would of given Leicester a huge lift.Leeds have parted ways with Bielsa and it’s not surprising the amount of goals they are conceding and perhaps the bookies are thinking new manager bounce with Leeds but i can’t see any manager having a big impact on this Leeds team straight away as all the players are used to man marking so the new manager has to retrain them to play in a tactical formation not easy and it’s not done overnight they simply won’t have had time.Jamie Vardy should tear this Leeds defense to shreds and if you bet this with b365 you have the added bonus of the two goals up offer.
?? Atlético Huila v Tigres FC ??
22:30
Colombian Cup 1st leg.
Tigres to score 10-11 (HILLS) ?? NAP ??.
Tigres scored In all 6 games in February.
This match will probably be under 2.5 match goals as hulia especially are rubbish at scoring.
Could be a 0-0 or a 1-0 home win but hoping tigres continue their scoring run.
Prediction 1-1
????????
That didn’t take long – 9mins!!
? Superb again Elvis
Superb Elvis, thank you. Fantastic!
Meant 8mins not 9mins!
Cheers’ guys, wish they all came in this quick ???
