League Two Macclesfield Town came within 13 minutes of causing an upset in round three of the FA Cup against Bolton Wanderers first time around.

However, a header from David Wheater rescued a replay for Premier League Wanderers and the meet again on Tuesday evening to determine who will play host to Swansea in round four.

Bolton: Bogdan; Robinson, Wheater, Knight, Rickets; Eagles, Pratley, Reo-Coker, Petrov; Davies, Klasnic.
