1921: TEAM NEWS Sheffield United v Arsenal
Ian Bennett, Michael Tonge, Chris Armstrong and Jon Stead are the only Blades to survive from the weekend draw against Hull. But that's nothing compared to the Gunners. Just the 11 changes for them, but they can still call on seven internationals.

1919: TEAM NEWS Luton v Everton
Luton, the lowest-ranked team left in the competition, are unchanged from the side that beat Nottingham Forest 2-1 at the weekend. Everton bring back Phil Neville after suspension - one of six changes - and start with James McFadden and Victor Anichebe in attack.

1917: Bouts of predicitions break out on 606. All fairly standard. No shocks, but please, no penalties. That's what awaits us if teams can't be split over the course of 90 minutes or 120 minutes.

1915: There are less little people than usual in north London as Arsenal have taken their kids to Sheffield United. Arsene Wenger's young Gunners have been impressing people but they are still only third favourites for this competition behind Chelsea and Liverpool.

1913: That's no Elvish greeting. It is in fact the term for those who suffer from a fear of Halloween, which is perfectly understandable. Loads of little people running around in a sugar rush wearing freaky plastic masks! Sounds like some horrible cross between 'Lord of the Rings' and 'Lord of the Flies', so you're in the right place. Pull the curtains, dim the lights and stay across the football at your computer.

1910: Samhainophobia.
