by Steve Ashfield | in FA Cup Predictions
Rochdale are 18th in League One and are three leagues above their opponents, 7th placed Boston United. They meet in this FA Cup second round replay and there is a big prize for the winners. Waiting in the third round is a home tie against Premier League Newcastle United. Rochdale are struggling in League One this season and are only five points above the relegation zone. They did win their last game though, winning 1-0 at sixth placed Rotherham United. Only one of their last four league and cup games have been lost and only one of their last five FA Cup ties have ended in defeat.

Boston United are seventh in National League North, that’s the final promotion play-off position. Only one of their last five games have been lost and this is their first home FA Cup tie of the season. They have had four away wins and the draw at Rochdale to get to this match. Home form is impressive but Blyth Spartans and Grantham aren’t quite as tough opponents as Rochdale. Go for an away win in this match.

Our Boston United FC vs Rochdale Prediction
Rochdale haven't had a great season so far but have showed some signs of recovery in recent weeks. An away win at Rotherham illustrates the progress they are making. They were held to a draw in the first match but will be hopeful they can get into the third round and that plum home tie against Newcastle United. Boston are doing ok in the National League North and battling for promotion. They don't have a great giant-killing reputation though and Rochdale can get the win here.
