Preston is not to be underestimated, especially after eliminating Fulham in the previous round of the tournament. They did it again at home after a 1:1 in regular time and penalties followed. It is clear that the current challenge is more serious, but the hosts dream of a new feat. Despite not having a loss in their last five matches, they are only in 16th place in the temporary Championship standings.
Arsenal made a 2:2 draw with Liverpool in their last match and has not had a victory in the Premier League for two consecutive rounds. Now they are expected to record one for the cup. Rotations will certainly be present, but this should not be a problem. In the previous round of the tournament, Arsenal's reserves defeated Bolton 5:1, and some of the youngsters are eagerly awaiting their chance again.
Prediction: Arsenal to win and over 1.5 goalsPreston, however, should not be underestimated, but remains in an unenviable position in the Championship. Even with a reserve team and rotations, Arsenal believe they are capable of handling this and achieving the expected victory.
