The FA Cup Fourth Round takes place this weekend and there are some cracking ties set to be played on Friday, Saturday and Sunday with the likes of Wycombe Wanderers and Accrington Stanley looking to topple Premier League opposition.
Also looking to cause some upsets are the two National League sides left in the competition and both Lincoln City’s and Sutton United’s matches feature in this week’s both teams to score betting tips.
Friday 27th January 2017
- Derby County v Leicester City (8/11 with Sky Bet) – We get things underway with an East Midlands derby at Pride Park where the Rams will be looking to batter their way past the Foxes. The home side have an excellent record in front of their own fans, but Leicester impressed in the last round and we like the look of BTTS in this one.
Saturday 28th January 2017
- Rochdale v Huddersfield Town (8/11 with Sky Bet) – Rochdale are another side with a good home record and we think that they will be able to find the back of the net against Huddersfield in this clash. The visitors have been in good nick but we think that this game is one which could go either way with David Wagner likely to rotate.
- Lincoln City v Brighton and Hove Albion (4/5 with Bet365) – Lincoln played out a highly entertaining 2-2 draw with Ipswich in the third round before beating them in the replay at Sincil Bank. We think that they will score once again against Championship opposition in front of their own fans, but they will have a hard job keeping out Brighton.
- Crystal Palace v Manchester City (4/5 with Bet365) – Big Sam hasn’t made the greatest start to life as Crystal Palace manager but we’d even back his Palace outfit to score against a City side who can’t buy a clean sheet. The problem for the Londoners however, has been keeping a clean sheet themselves.
- Southampton v Arsenal (4/6 with Coral) – Claude Puel’s Southampton side have been inconsistent all season but they have impressed in the cups this term. We think that they will be able to make it difficult for an Arsenal outfit who have been scraping results of late. This one looks a good bet for both teams to score.
Sunday 29th January 2017
- Fulham v Hull City (4/6 with Bet365) – Fulham have been good value for both sides to score all season and we like the look of BTTS in this clash at Craven Cottage between Marco Silva’s Hull side and the west London outfit. Fulham have been in good nick lately but Hull look to have turned a corner.
- Sutton United v Leeds United (4/5 with Bet365) – This match has all the makings of a cup upset and we think that Leeds United will make hard work of Sutton when the pair meet at Gander Green Lane. Ultimately the Whites should have enough about them to get the win, but we think that the home side will definitely score on their artificial pitch.
