FA CUP MONDAY: We preview Monday’s Fifth Round game between WIGAN v MAN CITY at 7.55pm with a recommended BETDAQ bet.
WIGAN V MANCHESTER CITY
7.55pm The FA Cup fifth round games were spaced out this weekend, and we finish the round with Manchester City visiting Wigan. This should be a good game, with both sides playing impressive football this season. Obviously Wigan have been at a lower level, and the market expects yet another easy win for Pep Guardiola’s side – with City trading 1.18 at the time of writing. If you fancy an upset; Wigan are 24.0, while the draw is 9.0.
Wigan have beaten Bournemouth and West Ham in the FA Cup here without conceding, however playing those sides is nothing in comparison to meeting Manchester City. Wigan suffered a surprise defeat midweek too, when losing 2-0 here to Blackpool, and prior to that they lost away to Southend too – so they aren’t in good form coming into this clash. It’s difficult to see anything but a routine City victory.
With Champions League commitments at the moment, it’s possible that Guardiola may opt to rest some of his key players. It shouldn’t make much difference to the result given the strength in depth that City have, however it does make the handicap markets interesting. Wigan have been solid this season, and City will likely view this game as just “getting the job done and moving on.” With Any Other Away Win (City to score four or more and win) trading as short as 2.3 we’re happy to lay those odds. We expect a City win, but without plenty of goals.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Lay Any Other Away Win at 2.3.
