The FA Cup is renowned for its giant killing and features what could be another such matchup on Tuesday. Wrexham came within seconds of beating Premier League hopefuls Sheffield United in their fourth-round tie. However, the latter held on for a draw to force Tuesday's replay. Check out our best Sheffield United-Wrexham soccer picks.

A home tie against Tottenham awaits the winner of Tuesday night's match. There must be a victor, so a draw in this game will mean extra time and penalties.

Wrexham’s talisman, Paul Mullin, was on the scoresheet in the last game and will be looking to be among the goals again on the big stage.

Sheffield United head into the match following a tough 0-0 draw against Rotherham United in league play. That put a dent in their push for promotion back to the Premier League, and they’ll have one eye on Saturday’s Championship match at home to Swansea. The Blades could make changes for the replay, with their priorities for the season elsewhere.

Here is our best Sheffield United vs. Wrexham FA Cup pick (odds via Caesars; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).

Sheffield United vs. Wrexham pick

Sheffield United and Wrexham both to score (-120 via Caesars) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Anything can happen in the FA Cup, as we’ve seen with Wrexham this season. With Sheffield United putting everything into promotion this year, head coach Paul Heckingbottom will likely rest players for this match so he can avoid any injuries to key personnel. However, regardless of who they put out, the Blades should have enough quality to progress to the fifth round.

Meanwhile, Wrexham are on fire. The team doesn’t know how to lose, going 24 games without defeat in all competitions.

There is a buzz around the club. It's three points off the top of the National League with two games in hand. The Welsh side will be fired up for Tuesday, knowing the spotlight is on it and a dream tie at home to Premier League giants Tottenham waiting as its reward.

If Sheffield United field a strong team, they should take care of business. But, with promotion being so crucial for them, it’s difficult to pick a winner in this game. Expect Wrexham to take the match to United, which should open things up.

Both teams are capable of scoring, making this the best pick in a game with so many uncertainties.

Sheffield United vs. Wrexham odds analysis

Sheffield United enter the game as big favorites, with the best moneyline odds available via Caesars and BetMGM at -210. If you want to back the Hollywood story, DraftKings and BetMGM have Wrexham at +550.

As well as the ML, you can bet on either team to advance to the next round. This takes out the draw on the ML, but you can grab Wrexham to go through at +370 via FanDuel. This play offers little value for Sheffield United, with the best odds at -500 via BetMGM.

Mullin has become a household name. He scored in the last match between these two sides, so if you fancy him to find the net in the replay you can get him at +230 via BetMGM as an anytime scorer.
