There are only 16 teams left in the FA Cup as we are getting into the crucial stages of the tournament. Liverpool, Man United, and Chelsea are all playing this midweek in the FA Cup. What should we expect from the most exciting FA Cup Fifth-Round matchups on Wednesday?
Chelsea lost the Carabao Cup final to Liverpool last Sunday thanks to Van Dijk’s goal in the 118th minute. The Blues have been shaky defensively lately, as they have conceded at least one goal in six consecutive matches in all competitions. Leeds United have a very good offense, scoring in 12 consecutive games, so this matchup promises a lot of goals, and both teams can definitely score.
Manchester United have improved a lot lately, winning five of their last six games. Nottingham Forest, on the other hand, had a very good start with Nuno Santo but regressed in the last period. The Red Devils have won 12 FA Cup titles in their history, and they are chasing the Gunners, who have 14 titles. Man United are in better form, and their odds are enticing to win this game.
Liverpool are the second favorites on the 23/24 FA Cup outright winner odds list. The Reds are in great spirits after winning the Carabao Cup, and they should get the win here despite the injuries they have, and they are still unbeaten at home this season. Southampton lost three of their last four games, and they have a lot of defensive problems. Liverpool scored an average of 3 goals per game in their last four matches, and they can easily score in both halves in this matchup.
