FA Cup Betting Odds Make Chelsea Hot Favourites Ahead Of Man City And Tottenham
Friday 12 February 2010 at 16:06
FA Cup Betting Odds have Chelsea as the only team to beat, not surprising given Man Utd, Arsenal and Liverpool have all been eliminated at an early stage, and the biggest threats now are set to be Man City, Tottenham and Aston Villa according to the bookies.
Chelsea Face Little Competition This Year With Man City And Spurs The Pick Of It
Chelsea can currently be backed at 7/4 with Ladbrokes to lift the FA Cup for the second time in two years. Chelsea are just 1/6 to beat Cardiff this weekend with Bet365 and it looks as though they should definitely progress. The same can be said about FA Cup Betting Odds second favourites Man City, who are 4/1 with Ladbrokes and Coral for FA Cup victory ahead of their match with Stoke at Eastlands. Many will be betting on Spurs because of their FA Cup tradition, they have a decent chance of winning under Redknapp, who won the cup with Portsmouth, Spurs are 13/2 with Coral but do face a tough tie away to Bolton.
Aston Villa Are A Proven Cup Team And Look A Decent Bet
Aston Villa are quietly fancied by many to win the FA Cup, they have already proven they are a good cup team by getting to the Carling Cup Final. Aston Villa are not a bad bet at all at 7/1 with VC Bet and Blue Square, they should be able to see of opponents Crystal Palace. Fulham and Birmingham are fifth favourites in the FA Cup Betting Odds, which perhaps shows the lack of strength in depth in the teams left in the competition, Fulham are 14/1 with Ladbrokes whilst Birmingham are 14/1 with Bet365, who offer up to £200 in free bets to new customers.
