  2. Sutton's predictions: Mansfield v Arsenalpublished at 18:25 GMT 6 March

    This will be Mansfield against Arsenal's second team, which is still very strong.

    The Stags beat Premier League Burnley at Turf Moor thanks to Louis Reed's stunning free-kick but, even at home and with the Gunners making changes, this is a much tougher proposition.

    Mansfield have not won any of their past nine games in League One - they have drawn six of them, and lost the other three - and are only five points above the relegation zone.

    They can forget about all that while they focus on this tie, and their fans can just enjoy the day too, but I can only see an Arsenal win here, whatever team they put out.

    Sutton's prediction: 0-2

  3. Forest show up in 'honest day's work' against Man Citypublished at 08:13 GMT 6 March

    Nottingham Forest's hard work against Manchester City on Wednesday has put the fans on their side, says former Reds defender Brian Laws.

    Forest secured a point in a 2-2 draw at Etihad Stadium and, in a season full of uncertainty over managerial appointments and Premier League survival, Laws thinks the supporters are starting to reconnect with the club.

    "What all the Forest fans really want is an honest day's work from the players and consistency," Laws told BBC Radio Nottingham.

    "Give your all. You can't kid the supporters - they know when you've put a shift in and when you've worked hard, and they know when you've been up for the game. And the players were up for the game, there was no question about it and the fans showed their appreciation.

    "It's something the fans crave and when you don't give it, they'll let you know, and I think that's fair because it hasn't been frequent or consistent enough this year.

    "But that connection with the fans is so important at this stage of the season. Particularly with where we are [in the table], we're going to need every one of them.

    "As long as the players give that effort and commitment, you'll have the fans with you all the way."
