Arsenal have won the FA Cup for the past two seasons and will be confident of making it through to the fourth round. They take on a Sunderland side who are in the relegation zone and have lost five of their last six league games. Home advantage is a big plus for the cup holders who have only been beaten by West Ham and Olympiakos at the Emirates this season.  Arsene Wenger will make changes for this game but with home advantage we're unlikely to see a repeat of their shock 3-0 loss at Sheffield Wednesday in the Capital One Cup.Sunderland ended a run of five straight defeats with a 3-1 home win over Aston Villa and it's clear that their only aim this season is to somehow stay in the Premier League. Manager Sam Allardyce has been critical this week of the crowded schedule of games his players are having to face. This game takes on Saturday and they have crucial away league games at Swansea on Wednesday and Spurs the following Saturday. He's made it clear that he'll be making several changes for this game. Of course Arsenal will do the same but their squad is a bit stronger than Sunderland's. The Gunners beat Sunderland at home last month and another win looks extremely likely this time and a bet on a -1 handicap looks a good one.
