Football Park's Top Picks: Weekend FA Cup Longshot (20/1)+

The FA Cup is back this weekend, and you know what that means - it’s time to dive into the ins and outs of the magic of the cup.

Being round two, none of the Premier League or Championship sides have entered the draw yet - the big boys are thrown into the third round, when the competition has thinned out. This means that this weekend's clashes feature sides from League One and below, and with 11 sides representing the National League or a division below, there is plenty of room for an upset, as well as a guaranteed place in the third round for a National League side in the third round.

No preamble, no messing around - let’s build you an outlandishly unlikely FA Cup Weekend Acca that will have you on cloud nine for days if it comes off.

This acca was made using talkSPORT Bet, which has great value odds for any leg you can imagine. With this acca, you could claim a massive x3 multiplier on any bet over £5, with a maximum win of £300 on offer. You don’t want to miss it.

**Football Park’s Weekend FA Cup Longshot **

• Over 3.5 goals in Swindon vs Bolton
• Both Teams to Score in Accrington Stanley vs Mansfield
• Macclesfield Town to Beat Slough Town
• Brackley Town to Beat Burton Albion

Total Odds: 28.57

Swindon/Bolton Game of the Round: Combining both Swindon and Bolton’s last five games, 31 goals have been scored, averaging out at 3.1 per game. It’s not quite over 3.5, but in a good old-fashioned cup tie, we think both sides will keep their feet to the floor.

Swindon could also test Bolton more severely than many will expect - they currently sit second in League Two, and while Bolton do sit in the League One play-off spots, the high-flying Robins will fancy their chances here. Bolton boast the attacking talent of Mason Burstow and Amario Cozier-Duberry on their books, who have 13 goals and nine assists between them this season. Expect fireworks at the Nigel Eady County Ground.

Close Game at the Wham Stadium: Next we move onto another League One vs League Two clash, as Accrington Stanley travel to Mansfield Town. Mansfield sit 16th in League One, while Accrington place one spot below in League Two - however, it is not their league position you should be looking at for this leg.

Instead, their goal records support the BTTS leg - Accrington have found the net at least once in each of their last nine, while Mansfield have scored in 11 of their last 12. History also supports this leg - in their eight meetings between the two since 2015, only two have finished with only one side having scored.

Macclesfield Move On: Now for the all-important game: this clash between National League North Macclesfield and National League South Slough Town presents the opportunity for one of the minnows to secure a spot in round three, and along with it, a potential meeting with a Championship, or even top-flight side.

Macclesfield sit 14th in the Northern tier, while Slough occupy a spot in the relegation zone in the league's southern counterpart, making Macclesfield the overwhelming favourites. Furthermore, the visitors have clinched some big wins in recent weeks, including a 6-3 win over Totton. With that kind of output in front of goal, along with their superior league position over Slough, it looks like Macclesfield’s fairytale will continue.

Upset in Brackley: Now for the riskiest leg in this acca - Brackley Town, conquerors of Notts County in the previous round, host Burton Albion as they search for their second consecutive cup shock.

Brackley’s recent league form doesn’t inspire confidence - they have lost their last five league games, conceding 13 games in that time, and their National League position of 20th (a point and place above the drop zone) sees whatever confidence remains plummet through the floor.

However, Brackley were superb in their penalty triumph over Notts County, dominating the League Two side, and it could be argued that they deserved to win in normal time. This game looks like a classic “magic of the cup” pick - Brackley are the obvious underdogs, but given the history of the FA Cup, few would be surprised if they beat an unsuspecting Burton Albion, who themselves are struggling in League One, sitting 22nd.
