National League leaders Chesterfield bid to knock out Championship side Watford in the FA Cup third round. Watford are the hosts and currently 10th in the second-tier of English football. They are only four points behind the final promotion play-off place but come into this game without a win in their last three games. The last two have both ended level. most recently a 3-3 draw at Plymouth Argyle on New Year's Day. The Hornets have won five of their 14 home league games this season and the last five have all seen both teams score. That's their most consistent feature at present with all of their last nine games seeing both teams get on the scoresheet. Home form in the FA Cup is good though with no defeats in their last eight ties. Their last loss was to Tottenham 12 years ago. The last three home FA Cup ties have all seen both teams score.
Chesterfield are in the third round of the FA Cup for the second season in a row. Last term saw them hold Championship side West Bromwich Albion to a home draw before being beaten at the Hawthorns. Chesterfield are well on their way to making their return to the EFL. They are currently seven points clear at the top of the National League and have a couple of games in hand. To get to this stage they have had to win three ties. They've beaten Kettering Town (the highest ever scorers in the FA Cup), League One Portsmouth and Orient from League Two. All those wins came at home with clean sheets kept. Their last nine away league games have all been won. Eight of their last 13 away games have seen both teams score and we tip that stat to come up again this weekend.
