Sunday’s FA Cup Betting Tips: Wolves and Palace primed for Cupsets?

Betting preview and odds for today’s TV ties

Wolverhampton Wanderers and Crystal Palace will both be hoping to avoid an upset this afternoon as the FA Cup 5th round edges towards its conclusion.   

The Eagles make the trip to League One side Doncaster Rovers, while Wolves take on Championship high-flyers Bristol City. Add in an all second-tier clash between Swansea City and Brentford and we’re all set for a big day of cup action.

Bristol City v Wolverhampton Wanderers (1pm, BT Sport 2)

Wolves had enough trouble getting past Shrewsbury Town in the last round. A trip to Bristol City should prove a much tougher affair. The Robins have made a habit of embarrassing Premier League opponents in recent years, after all.

Manchester United, Stoke City, Huddersfield Town and Palace have all fallen by the wayside at Ashton Gate in the last 24 months. And with Lee Johnson’s men on a 15-match unbeaten run – winning their last nine in all competitions – the visitors are going to have their work cut out here.

City are 7/2 for a cup upset, with 12/5 about the draw and 19/20 on the Double Chance. Powerful forward Famara Diedhiou is 13/5 for his tenth goal of the season, ahead of Andreas Weimann at 16/5.

Nuno Espirito Santo will name a strong side for the trip to the West Country, although there could be space for Adama Traore, who is usually used from the bench. His pace will terrify the City defence and we make him 21/10 Anytime.
