🏆 The Emirates FA Cup - SOON 2024/2025

[Rabi3]

I was watching Manchester City face Reading, and the match walk was really exciting. casemiro made 2 goals (1 goal came from Antony's assist and another goal came from Fred's assist). MU's opportunity to add goals is still very large because the ball possession is dominated by MU.

Impressive game for United, they controlled the game so well, dominated possession and created many chances which they were also able to convert three and sealed a victory against Reading.  A good way to come back from the lose against Arsenal in the past weekend. Brilliant performance from Casemiro as well, he is finally showing his class for the Red devils and he will be proud of his recent form.

I really hope to see Man United achieve something this season by winning a trophy, they really showed a class level of play against big teams such as Man City in the league, and overall they are a really good team regardless of the criticism they received throughout this season.

[notblox1]

I can't believe Blackburn had to wait extra time to qualify for next stage of FA Cup, and I had very nice bet on them to do it in regular time
Now we have few more matches that ended up with draw that are played in February and then next round 1/8 finals is coming.

Manchester United improved a lot comparing to the beginning of the season and they are now 4th in EPL which is unlikely to grab, so they are left with the FA Cup and EFL title.
In the EFL Cup they will most likely qualify to the final game and they will play against Newcastle. It will be a quite hard game but feasible.
In FA Cup, there is top teams there like City and Spurs that might annoy them tho.

[LUCKMCFLY]

The 1/16 fixtures bring us some really cool action especially two of the most important games which for me are Man.City vs Arsenal

Both also compete fiercely on the premier league which means they will play to show who is the best in England. Both also have motivated to pair premier league and FA Cup trophies for this year. So when we look Man City after a comeback from behind 0-2 in 1st half vs Spurs today, Man City seem still have mental champion which Arsenal Haven't had, so it's hard for Arsenal because have lost several times on Etihad Stadium also.

Arsenal is currently the Fa cup's most successful team and Man united is the premier league's most successful team, but  Taking about The best in England and rating it by who is to win the Fa cup title this season, are u saying that if man city or Arsenal win the FA cup title they have automatically become the best in England for this season or overall England best? Because I quest the best in England for the season should be the EPL champions but rating with the Fa cup is quite unusual. What if neither arsenal nor man city ends up winning the EPL title?

Well, this is something that can be questioned, I don't know if Man City can win the PL, but all the strongest teams that I have seen have only been for me, City, however I cannot deny that Arsenal is a team that has improved too much and as I have said in previous threads, it is a team that still does not have its best star who is the Brazilian Gabriel Jesus, so in view of all this and it is not that it is a great predictor of results, but I think that the winner of the PL if it can be the City, then here they can consolidate themselves as the best, of course it is 'only my personal opinion and I only base myself on how the team is playing in general.

There are four replay matches in FA Cup today after they played draw results last round, and one match Sunderlnad vs Fulham is played on February 8.
I see good opportunity for betting in today matches:

Burnley - Ipswich
Fleetwood - Sheffield Wed
Grimsby - Luton
Sheffield Utd - Wrexhan
Sunderland - Fulham

Burnley vs Ipswich
Burnley is comfortably seating on top of Championship and they can play this game much more relaxed than Ipswich who is playing in lower leagues and don't have secure position.
There is big class difference between this teams but they both want to try and win FA Cup like Burnley did more than 100 years in year 1914, and Ipswich won FA Cup in 1978.
Burnley is beating everyone in their stadium this season and I am sure this will continue today, they can be promoted in Premier league and go high in FA Cup this season.
My Bet: Burnley win

Sheffield Utd vs Wrexhan
Huge difference in quality and form of this two teams, so Sheffield Wed should win this easily.
Sheffield Utd is not far from getting back to Premier League and making good results in FA Cup will be sweet reward for them.
I don't see any other outcome other than home win, in both halves.
My Bet:Sheffield Utd win, Sheffield Utd 1st half win.

Fleetwood vs Sheffield Wed
Sheffield Wed is first place in league and they have big chance to come back in Championship next season.
This teams play in same league and they know each other very well, most times Sheffield Wed was better with narrow win.
My Bet: Sheffield Wed AH (0).

I did bet live on both Sheffield United game and Burnley game as soon as they were 1-1 and I did bet on over 2.5 goals as I thought I would have some easy wins yet they are nearly finishing the game and both games still continue 1-1.This means that the huge difference in quality and the fact that Sheffield United plays in a better league than Wrexham are not relevant at all in a competition like the FA cup.I doubt we will see any result change,most likely they will go in additional time or the game will be replayed at Wrexham after one week but I doubt Sheffield United to solve this within the 5 minutes remaining of regular time.

Sheffield Utd and Burnley did in their matches and qualified for next phase of FA Cup but they both did it in last moments of the match and stoppage time!
I really didn't expect to see Fleetwood winning against Sheffield Wed but this really happened and it ruined my bet

There is one more interesting FA Cup match tomorrow between Sunderland and Fulham, and I can't see any other outcome than Fulham with.
Odds are not bad and if Mitrovic starts the match I will bet on them to win, after I see lineups, maybe something with BetBuilder:

Sunderland - Fulham

even playing at home Sunderland has odds 4.1, while Fulham has odds 1.80. I am not surprised because from a material player, Fulham is better than Sunderland, they were also enough confident after hold a draw on Stanford bridge 2 days ago. but usually in this round many are surprised we can watch, possibility draw is happen.

[snipie]

My Bet: Burnley win
...
My Bet:Sheffield Utd win, Sheffield Utd 1st half win.
...
My Bet: Sheffield Wed AH (0).

If I casted a bet, it would be similar to yours except maybe for Sheffield first half win.
Sheffield Wednesday lost the game with 1 goal vs a team that passed this stage for the first time. To add, Sheffield Wed didn't lose a game from months.
For Sunderland - Fulham game, I expect a Fulham victory too even though they aren't ok in EPL lately.

I see good opportunity for betting in today matches:

Burnley - Ipswich
Fleetwood - Sheffield Wed
Grimsby - Luton
Sheffield Utd - Wrexhan
Sunderland - Fulham

- burnley managed to win 2-1.
- fleetwood narrowly won 1-0.
- grimsby town won big 3-0.
- while Sheffield managed to win 3-1 and all their goals came in the second half.

- while Sunderland vs Fulham (the last match in the 4th round) will take place later, as host, Sunderland will not let Fulham win easily. based on the head-to-head of the two teams, it seems that Sunderland and Fulham have the same percentage of wins, I think this match will end in a draw.

Can't say I haven't been particularly proud of Vincent Kompany with his management of the Burnley side. His been good tactically and his teams keeps providing the needed result to push forward to the next round. They might have managed it but, they were the dominant side in that game non  the less.

The Sunderland vs Fulham fixture, I truly don't see how Sunderland might manage it to beat Fulham. Its definitely going to be a Fulham win fir thise one and I'll be looking out to taking a bet on it and the 1.76 odd given to Fulham by bookmakers is quite okay.

Fulham surprised me, I thought Sunderland will be easy for them. But they lose easily to Sunderland. Fulham had difficult fixture this week from Chelsea to Sunderland,they was no rest for the team after the draw with Chelsea. Fulham is one of the team that's inform this season. Though this is premier league anything can happen, expect the unexpected results.

[notblox1]

Well done Fulham for going in next stage of FA Cup and they will ply with Leeds United!
I was worried when I didn't saw Mitrovic in starting eleven for Fulham, but he played second half and contributed for second goal.
1/8 final matches are scheduled from February 28 to March 1, and if draw happens match will be replayed.

In first leg match I was also having same feeling about Fulham as they were playing at home and odds were also good, so I put some money but at the end I have lost because Sunderland take early lead and then Fulham were not able to do anything in first half in second they scored one goal, and they save by Sunderland's disallowed goal, but today they have good lead early with 2 goals and then suddenly we have some action in last 15 minutes, but this time there were able to hold things in their favour and now have their next match for the round of 16 at Craven Cottage against Leeds United which is also doing good after sacking Marsch and having impressive draw against Manchester United at Old Trafford in Premier League game.

In FA Cup, there is top teams there like City and Spurs that might annoy them tho.

The change came all from the coach and then the player's, it's also so glad to see that some players not worthy of starting have been finally dropped on the bench to sit and watch. Else they'll cause Manchester United big and small games which they can easily win.
Seeing them going to another final gives me a whole lot of joy, I want to see them winning amd not just reaching Wembley to loss to Newcastle.

Fulham has got defending jobs to do as they head towards the premier league. The allowed two goals which says them defending is nothing but wacked and poor.

[notblox1]

FA Cup continues tomorrow with eight matches for 1/8 finals.
Four matches are played tomorrow and other four day after that, and I am expecting one or two big surprised.
Man City should easily win their match but odds are low so I am skipping this one.

Stoke vs. Brighton
Leicester vs. Blackburn
Fulham vs. Leeds
Bristol City vs. Man City

Leicester vs Blackburn
Bookies have Leicester as big favorite but I think Blackburn should not be underestimated, and they are in good form in Championship.
There is home advantage for Leicester but they are not doing great this season, and Premier league survival is more important for them.
Even in worst case scenario if Blackburn lose this match it will be with one goal difference, so nice asian handicap can be played with amazing odds
My Bets: Blackburn (+1.5) AH; Blackburn (+1) AH

Fulham vs Leeds
This is amazing season for Fulham so far, and if Mitrovic was not injured I would be certain they would win this match.
Leeds is fighting for survival and they need to focus on Premier League, so I think they can't afford to put all cards on match with Fulham and they are missing some important players.
Very good odds on Fulham and I am not missing this chance, with or without Mitrovic.
My Bet: Fulham win.

[buwaytress]

^ I feel like Leicester are playing better though, and they just seem to get a lift when Maddison plays -- or he's lifting them up, both are probably true haha. And yeah he's injured and seems to be never 100% after coming back briefly but he only needs to play and the Foxes will likely be just too strong for the Championship outfit.

I do agree with Fulham though. Leeds are no different from Bielsa's version at this stage of the season. Tired, desperate, out of ideas.

I don't know what to say sir buwaytress, but I made one nice prediction and I see Leicester is losing with two goals now, but there is lot of playing time left.
Let me show you fresh screenshot for one of my picks I made on Sportsbet yesterday, and I am crossing fingers it stays like this.
One second ticket I played on Fulham win, and I don't have time for writing long text for tomorrow matches in FA Cup, and I think most favorites should win, but better be careful.
I think favorites will rest many players and have mixed squad against lower league clubs.



Sweet odds  

[LFC_Bitcoin]

Leicester currently losing 2-1 to Championship team Blackburn. Not long left to go, only 15 minutes for Leicester to save themselves. I actually watched the first half of Bristol City vs Man City. Bristol City were giving it a good go to be honest against what is actually a strong Man City team.

Fulham heading into the next round as I type this, 2-0 up against Leeds. Elsewhere Brighton with a narrow 1-0 lead against Stoke.

[snipie]

Leicester disappointed many people this season in EPL, they performed bad in EPL, they wasted FA Cup participitation and barely everything.. They lost vs a team sitting in the 4th place in Championship.
City win good vs Bristol and Fulham scored two goals vs Leeds. Score fast and keep the ball near you to guarantee the result. Anyway, ManU vs West Ham might look interesting from the remaining 4 games.
The final Cup match looks to be a Manchester Derby.
