Betting on Bristol City
Bristol City has improved considerably from the last week of December to date, having gone 12 games unbeaten in all competitions in which it participates. In the Championship, they are not one of the most outstanding teams as they have distributed their 33 matches in 11 wins, 11 draws and 11 defeats.
Undoubtedly, this will be their toughest clash, at least in 2023, considering that they are facing a Premier League opponent. They are on a seven-game unbeaten streak at home, which can serve as motivation, as they have scored in each of those matches. In addition, they come into this match after beating Hull City by a score of 1-0.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Max O’Leary, George Tanner, Zak Vyner, Tomás Kalas, Cameron Pring, Matty James, Joe Williams, Mark Sykes, Alex Scott, Anis Mehmeti, Sam Bell
Betting on Manchester City
Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City is under a lot of pressure at the moment. The citizens compete for the Premier League title, and want to continue advancing in the Champions League and the same in the FA Cup. They managed to beat Bournemouth by a score of 1-4 in the last performance in the Premier League, and that could help them to have some time to take a breath after the 1-1 draw in the Champions League against Leipzig.
In the FA Cup they have already beaten Chelsea and Arsenal, rivals that also compete in the English first division, so on paper this match should not be complicated despite being away. They have only one loss in their last five games on rival soil in all competitions, but here they come in with four games unbeaten.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Stefan Ortega; Kyle Walker, Manuel Akanji, Nathan Aké, Sergio Gómez; Bernardo Silva, Rodri, Phil Foden; Riyad Mahrez, Julián Álvarez, Cole Palmer
JefeBet Prediction
The big favorite in this match is Manchester City, and there should be no surprises if they maintain the level seen in previous FA Cup matches. In addition, the record is in their favor in meetings with Bristol City with three wins in three games – in all matches both teams scored.
Prediction: Manchester City win by a score of 1-3.
