Aston Villa have already beaten Man Utd at Old Trafford in the Premier League this term and travelling there in the FA Cup should hold no fears. That victory was under Dean Smith but new boss Steven Gerrard will be even more fired up for this tie due to his past Liverpool connection.
West Ham have won all three Premier League meetings with Leeds since the Whites earned promotion and can transfer that form to the FA Cup. Even if David Moyes makes changes, the Hammers have a strong shadow squad which has done well in the EFL Cup and the Europa League.
Arsenal had their EFL Cup semi-final against Liverpool called off this week so have had more time to prepare for Sunday’s FA Cup third-round tie. Like Liverpool, Forest have also had a Covid outbreak recently and last weekend’s game against Barnsley was postponed.
We’ve got five selections from Saturday’s FA Cup games for our latest football accumulator tips and are eyeing a 9.85 pay-out. Don’t forget to check out bwin’s Enhanced Accas page for daily price boosts on multiple bets all over the world.
Rafael Benitez is under pressure to quickly improve Everton’s fortunes and that should ensure they treat their FA Cup third-round tie at Hull seriously. The Toffees are languishing in the bottom half of the Premier League table with just one win since late September so confidence must be low.
Patrick Vieira lifted the FA Cup four times as a player and will be keen to steer Crystal Palace into round four at the expense of Millwall. The Lions were once regarded as a team to fear on home turf by Premier League clubs but their recent record in this event is only moderate.
Manchester City have been hit by a Covid outbreak ahead of their FA Cup trip to Swindon but it is still hard to envisage the Robins pulling off a shock result. Pep Guardiola will miss the visit to The County Ground, along with at least seven first-team players.
Chelsea and Leicester will battle it out at Wembley on Saturday and we’ve asked our editors for their expert FA Cup final betting tips. Bwin is offering odds on a vast range of markets ahead of this weekend’s clash and here’s three predictions on how to cash in on the prices available.
Man Utd remain the only English team to have claimed Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League trophies in the same season, but Man City are 9/2 to land the same Treble bet. The Blues won all three major domestic competitions two years ago and will now try to also conquer Europe for the first time.
Chelsea are on a high after reaching the last eight of the Champions League and it would be a major upset if Sheffield United are the ones to end their unbeaten record under Thomas Tuchel. The Blues face an exciting end to the season due to their form since Tuchel replaced Frank Lampard.
Southampton have a welcome distraction from their poor Premier League form when they face south coast neighbours Bournemouth in the FA Cup quarter-finals. Saints have lost 10 of their last 12 league games but should still have too much quality for a Bournemouth team sitting outside the play-off places in the Championship.
Chelsea have already thrashed Barnsley in the EFL Cup this season so should be confident of a routine victory when they meet in the FA Cup fifth round FA Cup. Kai Havertz hit a hat-trick as the Blues cruised to a 6-0 win at Stamford Bridge in September, although both clubs have since had a change of manager.
Burnley seem ready to have a real crack at FA Cup glory this season and are fancied to get the better of Bournemouth at Turf Moor. The Clarets were convincing 3-0 victors at Fulham in round four and have performed with credit in the Premier League since that tie.
Sheff Utd have used the FA Cup to try and build much-needed confidence this season and are expected to do the same when they host Bristol City. The Blades remain rooted to the bottom of the Premier League but have again been handed a kind cup draw, having squeezed past two League One opponents.
