Top 5 Potential FA Cup Round Three upsets

Liverpool v Plymouth

 

Liverpool are currently second in the Premier League behind league leaders Chelsea and Jurgen Klopp’s side are presently showing their best form in recent years. They have only lost two games so far in 2016/17, are unbeaten in their last six games and have netted four or more goals on seven separate occasions this season.

The Reds come up against high-flying League Two promotion contenders Plymouth Argyle. The Devonshire side had to overcome both Mansfield and Newport County to set up a third-round clash at Anfield and this is only the second time since 2010 that The Pilgrims have reached this stage of the FA Cup. However, they may be in with a chance of causing an upset as the Merseyside team maintain a dreadful record in the FA Cup and have been knocked out by lower league opposition on eight separate occasions since the introduction of the Premier League in 1992.

Should Derek Adams’ men be able to carry their league form into this fixture, the five-time European champions could be knocked out of this competition early yet again.
