Lots, and I mean LOTS, of empty seats at Manchester City.

The traffic chaos is causing problems.

There's traffic chaos outside the Etihad Stadium tonight, with problems on the roads, and trams cancelled. 

Steve Stone is meant to be there for 5 live Sport tonight - but he's been delayed in the traffic. We're assured that he'll be there soon....

Shame Steve Stone isn't... 

Eloise Cropp: Listening from Sudbury, Ontario, Canada where it's a nippy -18, with a windchill of -32! Brr

That's cold, but is it as cold as the Britannia stadium on a Wednesday night?

GAME ON at Chelsea, Manchester City, Southampton, Stoke and Swansea.

We have 20:00 kick-offs at Liverpool and at Tottenham. 

I know that 'a cold midweek game in Stoke' is a cliche but my word, I've just seen two mascots who looked extraordinarily freezing!

Shoulders hunched, teeth chattering, you name it. 

Get inside!

Mark Wilkins: Lately Millwall's alternative anthem should be The Lion(s) Sleep Tonight! Sadly..... 

Ashley Skinner: Not an arsenal fan , but Stand by your Man by Tammy Wynette, because they have stuck by Wenger for nearly 20 years

eddie: Alternative Club Anthem for Arsenal - "Nothing's Gonna Stop us Now" - Starship.

The floodlights go out at Chelsea....

It's meant though, to add some atmosphere as the teams come out.

They are back on now.

John Roder
Match of the Day commentator at Selhurst Park

"Stoke and Norwich both made full use of their squads for the FA Cup third round. Stoke can continue to dream of two Wembley finals, while Norwich are left, in Alex Neil's words, to their 'bread and butter' of Premier League survival.

"The Canaries' chances of staying up received a huge boost with successive home victories over Aston Villa and Southampton.

"Stoke will hope to extend Norwich's poor recent away record and the trio of Marko Arnautovic, Bojan Krkic and Xherdan Shaqiri will make life very difficult for the visitors, who would surely be happy if it ends as a draw, just as it did at Carrow Road back in August."

Chris: If St Mary's the wettest then I'm currently listening from Oslo which is -11. Coldest listener?   

Anybody colder?

Simon Brotherton
MOTD commentator at White Hart Lane

"Southampton's poor run of results seems slightly odd considering how well they've played when I've commentated on them this season, particularly in their 3-1 win over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

"The match at West Ham over Christmas was a case in point. They were miles better than their hosts in the first half and should have had the game sewn up by the break, but didn't and ended up losing 2-1.

"I sensed Ronald Koeman was quietly seething afterwards and could understand why.

"It won't get any easier here for Saints, against a lively and confident Watford team who've so far won more points on the road than they have at home."

Martin Fisher
Match of the Day commentator at Carrow Road

"In my opinion, both managers can be excused for having their eyes on this fixture ahead of last weekend's FA Cup ties. This is a cup final. And it's the first of several these clubs will face between now and May.

"Losing to League Two Oxford was embarrassing for Swansea but will be quickly forgotten if they can win against Sunderland. A lack of goals has been a major problem, but just one might be enough this time.

"The same can be said of Sunderland - a repeat of Jermain Defoe's late winner at Palace would do nicely.

"They trail the Swans at the moment but Big Sam's presence, coupled with their near annual experience of relegation scraps, convinces me they have the better chance of survival."

Chris Bevan
BBC Sport at Etihad Stadium

"After four successive away games, the lights of the Etihad Stadium on a freezing cold and wet night must be a welcome sight for Manchester City fans, who are back on home turf for the first time this year.

"The travelling Everton supporters will be just as glad to see them too - there is traffic chaos on the M62 that has delayed the Toffees team bus, and a car on the tracks means there are no trams to the Etihad from Manchester city centre either."

Lee Parkinson: Our alternative anthem at Leeds should be David Bowie - Changes, sums up Cellino and his merry-go-round attitude.

Simon from Stockport:  Man City's club anthem should be I'm Coming Out by Diana Ross...a gleefull joyful jig whose looking forward suggests moving out of darkness to a time bristling with possibilities and winged arrival.

Mike Newton: For Aston Villa...Sam Smith. The writing's on the wall.
