Aiming to make lightning strike twice in FA Cup replays, Nottingham Forest host Bristol City in Wednesday's fourth-round rematch at the City Ground.
Nuno Espirito Santo's men played out a goalless draw with their Championship counterparts at Ashton Gate on January 26, but both sides have previous when it comes to prevailing at the second bite of the cherry.
We say: Nottingham Forest 1-0 Bristol City
Forest may not be as prolific in the final third as they were during the earliest days of Santo's reign - their attacking display at Ashton Gate certainly left a lot to be desired - and concerns over the fitness of Bournemouth hero Hudson-Odoi is not what the doctor ordered.
However, faced with a Bristol City side who flatter to deceive on the road and were fortunate to only lose by one against Leeds, Forest could conjure up an identical success over the Robins en route to a glamour fifth-round meeting with Manchester United.

Teetering on the edge of yet another on-field crisis, Chelsea bid to right some Premier League wrongs in the FA Cup, where Aston Villa lie in wait for Wednesday's fourth-round replay.
The teams reconvene at Villa Park after shaking hands on a goalless draw in West London, and a home meeting with either Leeds United or Plymouth Argyle is in store for the midweek victor.
We say: Aston Villa 3-1 Chelsea
Remarkably, all of Aston Villa's last five home games in the FA Cup have ended in defeat, but faced with a permeable Chelsea side who are often easy pickings on the road, that curse should be lifted here.
While we do have faith in Chelsea to avoid their unwanted scoreless record against the Lions, they are at risk of being overwhelmed by Emery's red-hot attackers, who ought to propel their side into the fifth round while piling even more pressure on the under-fire Pochettino.
