Manchester City 3/1 favourites to win the FA Cup
Published:
Pep Guardiola’s side have won six games in a row
After a convincing 3-0 win over Championship strugglers Birmingham City in the third round, Manchester City are 3/1 favourite to win this season’s FA Cup.
Three goals in 33 first half minutes from Bernardo Silva and Phil Foden eased Pep Guardiola’s side into the fourth round, with the draw taking place on Monday evening.
Coral’s Harry Aitkenhead said: “City are looking unbeatable at the moment, having not lost in any competition since November and now with six wins on the spin. We can’t look any further than them for the favourites in this year’s FA Cup.”
Liverpool are 5/1 second favourites after they saw off Aston Villa, with Manchester United 6/1 third favourites after their narrow 1-0 win over Watford.
Frank Lampard’s Chelsea claimed their first win in three matches with a 4-0 win over Morecambe and are 7/1 to be this year’s winners.
Holders Arsenal overcame Newcastle in extra-time, with the Gunners 8/1 in the betting, the same price as North London rivals Tottenham, who eased past non-league Marine.
“Liverpool are now the second favourites whilst holders Arsenal can be backed at 8/1 to retain the trophy after sneaking through the third round in extra-time,” added Aitkenhead.
