FA Cup third round shock ratings: Will we see upsets?

Daily Mail  

It is a sainted day in the English football calendar - no matter how much money is poured into the Premier League, or how top heavy the modern structure has become, this is as close as it gets to a level playing field. Shock rating: 2/5 League One Fleetwood Town host Premier League Leicester City in Saturday's early kick-off Bolton Wanderers vs Huddersfield Town After a dreadful start to the season - they got two points from their first 11 games - Bolton are slowly recovering, and come into this on good form with three wins in their last four. Shock rating: 3/5 After a dreadful start to the season Bolton are recovering, and face Huddersfield in good form Bournemouth vs Wigan Athletic Although Premier League at home to League One doesn't scream upset, this puts together a Cherries side facing a relegation fight and the Latics, top of their table and with recent FA Cup pedigree. Shock rating: 3/5 League One leaders and recent FA Cup winners Wigan visit Bournemouth in a potential shock Coventry City vs Stoke City If any fans could sum up the phrase 'long-suffering', it would be Coventry supporters, but not only are they in the League Two promotion mix, they also have a prime shock opportunity against a Stoke side far more preoccupied with a relegation fight. Shock rating: 2/5 Norwich manager Daniel Farke is hoping to mastermind an upset against champions Chelsea Shrewsbury Town vs West Ham United Relegation favourites at the start of the season, Paul Hurst's Shrews are five points clear in the League One automatic promotion spots.
