What a start at Valley Parade! Millwall are down to 10 men as a long ball through again holds up in the heavy mud, James Hanson looks to break clear and Mark Beevers tussles with him. Beevers is the last man and has to go.

"Southampton's success is similar to Ipswich's in many ways. They are all pulling in the same direction. Everyone expects them to fall off but they don't look like being knocked off their perch now."

"There is a heavy schedule at the moment so you can understand Sean Dyche giving other players a chance to show their skills. It will be interesting to see how Marvin Sordell and Sam Vokes do as two orthodox strikers.

"Spurs fans will hope Roberto Soldado will get a few shots on goal to boost his confidence because they need a challenger for Harry Kane otherwise the burden will get too much for him."

Scrappy start in Bradford. If I was kind I would say the pitch is a tad 'weathered'.

A free-kick for the hosts sticks in heavy mud in the goalmouth, with Millwall eventually clogging it away.

Former Ipswich and England defender at Portman Road

"Daryl Murphy is good in the air, strong and he works hard. He pulls away from defenders and has scored some brilliant goals this season. Alongside David McGoldrick they remind me of Danny Ings and Sam Vokes at Burnley, who scored the goals that got them promoted last season."

Face paint, on a grown man? Tick. Officially a big Cup game now...

Jon Stead gets the night under way. Don't forget, the winners of this one play Chelsea.

"We're in for an entertaining game. Mick McCarthy has spent £10,000, that's all, so what he has done in the Championship is brilliant. He has got them organised and all the players want to play for him."

As well as the year of the beard, 2014-15 is the season of the return of the 3-5-2! Saints go three at the back tonight. Is that the right move? Time will tell.

Kick-off is 10 minutes away.

Southampton boss Ronald Koeman told Match Of The Day: "I was expecting a difficult game in the first match and we got that. We only played well after 30 minutes but deserved to win the game.

"Now we have to do it for the replay. We beat Manchester United and it was a confident performance. But we realise it will be tough this evening. It's an away game and against a team team with a different stale of play. We are prepared for that.

"We will play with three centre-backs tonight. The reason behind the system is from the first game. I think will we have more control and ball possession with this system."

Ipswich manager Mick McCarthy told Match Of The Day: "I've got 16 fit players but that's all we need! We played well at Southampton and defended particularly well which has earned us the replay tonight.

"I'm aware the club has not done anything really in the FA Cup recently. Everyone loves a cup run and that's proved with the crowd."

The sides are out at a blustery Valley Parade. The first kick-off of the night is almost upon us.

"Mick McCarthy has his team fighting for him, and in Daryl Murphy and David McGoldrick they have that bit of quality up front as well. It's going to be tough for Southampton."

Terry Butcher
Former Ipswich and England defender, at Portman Road

"Ipswich are doing well but at the start of the season I thought 'no chance', so credit to Mick McCarthy. It's a typical Mick team. They are organised and hard to beat.

"Mick's a former defender and you tend to build teams from the back as a manager which he has done. Ipswich's back four has really done well, and they are dangerous from set-pieces at the other end as well."

That is absolutely gutting Daniel...

As tonight's sides chase long-awaited FA Cup glory, we asked you when you had to wait years to fulfil an ambition.

Daniel in Ipswich: My Dad had a ticket for the '78 FA Cup final (Ipswich vs. Arsenal). Unfortunately, he was extremely ill and missed the match. His Mum told him 'don't worry son, there's always next time'. Thirty seven years and he's still waiting. Hoping for an Ipswich win tonight for him.

The 2014-15 season may well go down as the year of the beard, and Ipswich keeper Bartosz Bialkowski has joined the club. A cracking effort, good coverage, strong definition, good depth - 8.5/10.

Paddy Harper:, external As a Southampton fan feeling somewhat nervous about tonight's game. Replay match away from home. Tough fixture versus a decent team.

Paul Burton:, external Two pressing teams tonight, extra-time would be terrible for both!

Stephen Butler:, external I predict a shock tonight I think Ipswich town can grind out a result.

There are 20 places on the footballing ladder between the two sides on show at Portman Road - with both sides third in their respective divisions.

Ipswich have been knocked out of the FA Cup at this stage in each of the last four seasons.
