This will be Mansfield against Arsenal's second team, which is still very strong. The Stags beat Premier League Burnley at Turf Moor thanks to Louis Reed's stunning free-kick but, even at home and with the Gunners making changes, this is a much tougher proposition. Mansfield have not won any of their past nine games in League One - they have drawn six of them, and lost the other three - and are only five points above the relegation zone. They can forget about all that while they focus on this tie, and their fans can just enjoy the day too, but I can only see an Arsenal win here, whatever team they put out.
