I sensed immoderate unhappiness from Ipswich supporters towards maine aft I went for Burnley to triumph 4-0 astatine Portman Road, and the crippled finished 0-0.
But some teams made truthful galore changes erstwhile they archetypal met that it made it incredibly hard to foretell what would happen.
I tin decidedly spot Ipswich manager Kieran McKenna doing the aforesaid again connected Tuesday, and wherefore wouldn't he?
It's a agelong mode for them to question to Turf Moor and they play League One leaders Sheffield Wednesday connected Saturday.
On apical of that, Burnley's location grounds this play is astir impeccable, with 11 wins and 4 draws from 15 games successful the Championship.
It's going to beryllium a agelong travel location for Ipswich fans, and I deliberation it is going to beryllium a miserable one.
Sutton's prediction: 5-0

Promotion is intelligibly the precedence for Sheffield Wednesday. They person been connected a large tally to spell apical of League One, but they inactive person to ticker retired for teams similar Derby who are giving it a existent spell to drawback them.
Fleetwood got a truly bully gully astatine Hillsborough archetypal clip out, and you mightiness deliberation location vantage gives them the borderline now, but I really deliberation Wednesday volition nick this one.

1R: Plymouth (L1) H |
This 1 amazed me, with Grimsby getting a 2-2 gully astatine Kenilworth Road a fewer days aft being smashed 5-0 by Swindon successful League Two.
Luton's level of show was atrocious for a squad successful the Championship play-offs, and Grimsby mightiness adjacent person won it archetypal clip astir - truthful they volition surely fancy their chances connected their ain patch.
I don't spot Luton being arsenic atrocious again, though. Maybe Grimsby's accidental has travel and gone?
Sutton's Prediction: 0-2
Sheff Utd v Wrexham
Live commentary connected BBC Radio 5 Live
Who did they beat? | ||
3R: Millwall (C) A | 3R: Coventry (C) A | |
2R: Farnborough (NL) H | ||
1R: Oldham (NL) H |
This is different necktie wherever it feels similar the underdogs person had their chance.
Wrexham had their opportunity, erstwhile they were astatine location and successful beforehand against Sheffield United's 10 men heavy successful stoppage time.
It was each determination for them but they could not negociate the Hollywood decorativeness to clasp connected and acceptable up a fifth-round necktie with Tottenham.
Everyone is talking astir however breathtaking that crippled would beryllium for the Welsh broadside but they are incorrect to disregard Sheffield United aft their signifier this season.
Even if the Blades marque much changes, they should triumph astatine location and marque plans for erstwhile Spurs are successful municipality successful a mates of weeks.
Sutton's Prediction: 5-1
WEDNESDAY, 8 FEBRUARY
Sunderland v Fulham
Live connected BBC One, BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport website, positive commentary connected BBC Radio 5 Live
Who did they beat? | ||

What a communicative it would person been if Sunderland's 15-year-old midfielder Chris Rigg had not seen his precocious victor ruled retired successful the archetypal crippled - helium would person go the youngest-ever goalscorer successful the FA Cup.
It was unfortunate for him, and for Sunderland excessively due to the fact that they really had a existent spell astatine Fulham.
If the Black Cats triumph this replay they look Leeds, and we get a replay of 1 of the astir celebrated FA Cup finals successful past - from 50 years agone successful 1973 erstwhile Sunderland goalkeeper Jim Montgomery helped the Second Division broadside clinch a superb triumph and Bob Stokoe ran connected the transportation to celebrate.
But it is simply a large stroke for them that striker Ross Stewart is retired for the play with an Achilles injury, and Fulham inactive person to beryllium favourites to advancement contempt being the distant side.
I deliberation Marco Silva's broadside should look astatine the FA Cup arsenic being a existent accidental for them this season, due to the fact that they are not going to get relegated present - they person not reached the semi-finals since 2002, truthful wherefore not purpose for Wembley?
Sutton's prediction: 1-2 aft other time
