Liverpool and Shrewsbury Town meet in their FA Cup fourth-round replay at Anfield tonight to decide who will play Chelsea in the next round.
Liverpool had led 2-0 in the first game with a goal from Curtis Jones and a Donald Love own-goal, but two goals from substitute Jason Cummings forced the Reds into a replay.

Prediction
An unpredictable game to say the least, Liverpool’s youngsters came out on top against rivals Everton in the previous round which bodes well. However, Shrewsbury will fancy their chances against what will be Liverpool’s academy, but Critchley’s side have shown before they are capable of rising to the challenge.
Liverpool 2-1 Shrewsbury Town
