Villans to See Off Bluebirds

On Friday night, Aston Villa welcome Cardiff City to Villa Park. The EFL Championship side have nothing to lose against the Villans, but the home team are the clear favourites to get the win and book their place in the quarter-finals.

Unai Emery’s men are looking to get back to winning ways after the midweek thumping at Selhurst Park. Cardiff hope to build on Tuesday’s crucial Championship victory over relegation rivals Hull City.

The Bluebirds could cause a few problems, but Aston Villa’s qualities should get the hosts over the line at Villa Park. Our money is going on the home win and both teams to score at 2.85.

Seagulls to Fly into Round Six

Premier League sides Newcastle and Brighton lock horns at St James’ Park on Sunday afternoon. The Seagulls picked up a 1-0 win in Tyneside when the teams met in the league in October.

The Magpies have had a slump in form, losing four of their last eight in all competitions. In contrast, Brighton have won four league and cup matches on the trot and seven of their last nine.

Fabian Hurzeler’s side do not lose many, suffering just two losses since mid-December. St James’ Park is a tricky place to visit, but we fancy Albion to win at Newcastle’s home again (3.15).

Brighton & Hove Albion Win – 3.15

United to Secure a Third Victory Over Cottagers

Manchester United take on Fulham on Sunday at Old Trafford in FA Cup action. The Red Devils have beaten the London side home and away in the Premier League this season.

United would have taken some confidence from the midweek win over Ipswich Town. Despite being a player down from the 43^rd minute, Ruben Amorim’s men held on for all three points.

Fulham are in great form, winning four of five, but the Cottagers have struggled against Man United this term. We like the look of 4.50 for United to win to nil again.
