The draw, which would result in extra time, is available at 7-2, but Leeds are 1-3 to advance while Plymouth is 9-4 and has the same odds of winning on penalties as Leeds.

However, the bookmakers believe the match won’t last more than ninety minutes and predict Leeds to win. If Leeds wins, there will now be an additional match in the FA Cup fifth round in addition to the 16 games remaining in the team’s quest for promotion.

The victor of the Home Park repeat on Tuesday night will have to travel to either Chelsea or Aston Villa, who square off in a fourth-round replay on Wednesday at Villa Park. In a very close race, Villa is the slight favorite to advance at 3–4, with Chelsea at 11–10.
