We said: Burton Albion 0-1 Accrington Stanley

Fresh from a postponed fixture on home soil, Accrington should have the legs to compete with an increasingly resilient Burton side and edge through to the fourth round. Though defeat would end Albion's unbeaten run, they still have a winnable FA Cup tie with Grimsby to look forward to early next year. Read more.
