Aston Villa v Chelsea: Aston Villa to win & Ollie Watkins to score or assist - 10/11
Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino is coming under intense pressure following a dismal start to his Chelsea tenure and an FA Cup exit would further increase speculation over his future at Stamford Bridge.
However, unfortunately for him, opposing manager, Unai Emery is something of a cup specialist. Aston Villa are right in the mix for Champions League qualification and they currently occupy fourth position in the Premier League. They should prove too strong for a Chelsea side in turmoil on Wednesday evening.
Ollie Watkins continued his excellent form at the weekend, claiming one goal and three assists in the 5-0 demolition of Sheffield United. Watkins now has 16 goals and ten assists for the season and he is superb value at 4/5 to score or assist a goal versus Chelsea.
Nottingham Forest v Bristol City: Nottingham Forest to win & BTTS - 5/2
Bristol City earned a deserved draw at Ashton Gate but you feel their best chance of progressing to round five has passed them by. The Robins lost at home to Leeds United on Friday evening to extend their poor run of form to one win in nine matches in all competitions
The previous fixture between these sides produced Nottingham Forest’s first clean sheet since November 5th whilst Bristol City have just two clean sheets in eight matches in 2024.
