Our prediction for this FA Cup match:
King’s Lynn and Stevenage go head to head at the Walks Stadium in the FA Cup round 3. King’s Lynn did well to shock Doncaster in the previous round, with substitute Gold Omotayo scoring the only goal of the match. The Nigeria forward is pushing for a start, while there are no fresh injury worries in the National League North side.
The Boro, on the other hand, played out a 1-1 draw with Grimsby Town in their last league match, while beating Arsenal U21 in the EFL Trophy. Both Saxon Earley and Luke Norris are pushing for a start after the duo came from the bench in the EFL Trophy triumph. Stevenage are more of a team than King’s Lynn, and given their fine form in November, we predict that the visitors are going to advance to the FA Cup last 64.

Based in Hertfordshire, England, Stevenage Borough are a professional club that compete in the League Two. The Boro are well known for their red and white home hit, while dark blue is the dominant colour of their away kit. Stevenage play their home games at Broadhall Way, the stadium which can hold up to 6,722 spectators and they were founded in 1976.
The Boro have won FA Trophy on two occasions (2006/07, 2008/09), with the team clinching the Herts Senior Cup title in the 2008/09 season thanks to a 2-1 win over Cheshunt. Luton are considered one of the club’s biggest rivals and there have always been fireworks in matches between the two sides.
In 2015 fighting broke out between rival fans near to the end of the clash at the Lamex. It has to be noted that Stevenage Borough were founded in 1976 after the bankruptcy of Stevenage Athletic.
