Manchester City are the 3/1 favourites to win the FA Cup for the second consecutive season
Manchester City are now 3/1 to win the FA Cup after a tough fourth round draw has seen Pep Guardiola’s men travel to North London to face Tottenham Hotspur.
City have struggled against Spurs in the past, particularly at the new White Hart Lane, with no goals scored at the ground in the five years it’s been open.
9,000 City fans are expected to travel down to London though and it could be the first time they see their team score in the new ground.
Bookmakers have kept City as the favourites to win the FA Cup for the second season in-a-row, with their odds now at 3/1.
Bet365’s odds list puts City at the top of the market with those latest odds suggesting there’s a 25% chance of them winning the FA Cup once again, with Liverpool and Manchester United following in the market.
What the expert says...
Liverpool and Manchester United following in the betting market after favourable fourth round draw's
Favourable draws for Liverpool and Manchester United in the fourth round of the FA Cup makes bookies put them as the second and third favourites for the competition respectively.
Jurgen Klopp’s men were impressive winners away at Arsenal on Sunday where a younger inexperienced side came out on top against the Gunners in a 2-0 victory.
Manchester United also put in a professional display away to Wigan on Monday evening where a 2-0 win could have been a lot bigger if they had taken more of their chances.
Erik ten Hag would love a cup run with United not in the running for any other trophies this season and he’ll be looking to do one better than the 2-1 defeat to Manchester City in last season’s final.
