Welcome to the FA Cup Third Round replays
With places in the next round up for grabs, the stakes are high for all the teams who could not be separated in their previous encounter.
Blackpool led two-nil at the City Ground but Nuno Espirito Santo’s side came back to draw level and the League One side managed to hold on for a draw.
They had Daniel Grimshaw to thank for the replay at Bloomfield Road after he made a number of saves late on to deny the Premier League outfit their winner.
League One outfit Bristol Rovers managed to get a creditable draw at Carrow Road as they faced Championship side Norwich City.
The hosts took the lead early on but the visitors were quick to reply with only five minutes between the goals.
Despite the Canaries dominating possession, it was an even game with both sides having chances to progress to the next round.
In an all Premier League encounter, Crystal Palace and Everton played out a goalless draw at Selhurst Park which failed to deliver to the build-up.
The most notable point was the sending off of Dominic Calvert Lewin which was overturned when Everton appealed his ban and will be available to seek revenge this evening.

Moyes regret
David Moyes says things didn’t go for his side in their cup dumping tonight.
The West Ham boss was quick to point out the exciting second half of the season his side have to look forward to though.
He told BBC: “Disappointed. Lots of things didn’t go for us tonight but overall disappointed.
“We had one or two opportunities, especially in the first half. Some good things but not enough to win the game.
“It is a blow because we would have liked to have been in the cup but we have Europe to look forward to in March and we are in a good position in the league, but we are disappointed to go out.”
‘Emotional time’
Rob Edwards said his side weren’t at their best as the saw off League One Bolton to reach the fourth round.
The Hatters are now set to head for some warm weather training and recovery after a tough opening half of the season in the top flight.
Edwards said, via the BBC: “I’m pleased we are through, tonight was about winning. We were not at our best, sloppy in too many moments and allowed them to build into the game.
“We know we have to be full tilt. This game we just dropped a bit, and you can’t do that. Bolton are a big club, but when we are favourites, we took our foot off the gas and Bolton could have punished us.
“We’re going away for some warm weather, getting training in and time together, down time together. Has been a tough season so far, everything with Locks as well, it has been an emotional time.”
