This round of the FA Cup brings Harrogate Town up against Bury once again, after the two sides met in the same cup in October and drew 1-1, so they must settle it in this match. The context is different this time, though, because Harrogate Town play in a higher league and are in better form. Harrogate Town have won 4 of their last 5 league matches, with the most recent win a 1-0 over a National League rival, while Bury are unbeaten in 2 straight but their overall form is still more up and down, having lost 0-1 in the league in early October. This game should be open and end-to-end from the start, because both teams score often in the first half of their recent matches, and looking at how Bury have played, they tend to concede early in games more than at other times. If the game opens up like that, there is a good chance the total goals go over 2.5.
