We said: Port Vale 2-1 Sutton United

Although Sutton have knocked out two teams in League One to book their place in third round, we think that they will be unable to repeat that feat on Tuesday. We believe that the Valiants will prove too strong for a Sutton side who have failed to win any of their last five competitive games. Read more.
