Live on ITV1: Sun 12.00: Southport face draw-of-the-round Sheffield Wednesday and the Owls are 8/11 to win (Bet365).
One assumes that broadcasters believe off-colour Sheffield Wednesday are potential upset material in the FA Cup first round this weekend hence their trip to Southport being chosen for live television coverage and the Sandgrounders are 9/2 with Betfred to keep up their side of the bargain by stunning the Owls.

Of course, it won’t be easy for the Owls on Merseyside, as the hosts will be quickly out of the blocks but they can nevertheless weather the early storm and ultimately prevail ‘to nil’ at Haig Avenue (2/1, 888Sport) where Jermaine Johnson can play a pivotal role. The winger is 7/1 at Ladbrokes to break the deadlock against the Blue Square Premier outfit.
