PREVIEW
One of those games where it’s hard to get away from the obvious.
Often as a punter you have to get away from the obvious and find angles of value against the crowd but 2.42 ANY OTHER SCORE on BETDAQ really appeals to us tonight.
In September 2012 it finished 6-1 to Arsenal and the gulf between the two sides is even greater now.
Arsenal sit proudly on the top of the English pyramid whilst beleaguered Coventry are 11th in League One – and would be 6th and in the play-off zone but for being docked 10 points for entering administration.
Coventry are on a good run having lost just one of their last 11 and won at Barnsley in round three. But they face an Arsenal side who have conceded one goal in their last nine home matches.
Both sides are likely to field relatively strong sides despite their League priorities.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger recognises the FA Cup as a route to a first trophy since 2005 as he looks to avoid a repeat of last season’s shock defeat by Championship side Blackburn.
“We have to prepare seriously for this game, because we are on a good run and it will be really not welcome at all not to take this game seriously,” said the Frenchman.
We’ll be happy if Arsenal knock in four goals, or Coventry for that matter!
