FA Cup Betting
No Joy for Blades
Sheffield Utd v Middlesbrough – Live on BBC 1, k/o 2:00pm
After bursting Manchester City's balloon in the last round, the Blades, who will be without manager Bryan Robson, will be looking to cut down another Premier League team at Bramall Lane this afternoon but could meet their match against Middlesborough.
Middlesbrough have experienced an upturn in form in recent weeks, having won four and drawn three of their last seven games. With a number of lower league teams still in the competition, Gareth Southgate will view the FA Cup as Boro’s only viable route into Europe next season.
With Boro in good form, the bookies have priced them as firm favourites at 7/5 (Unibet), meanwhile Sheffield Utd have been priced at 11/5 by Ladbrokes to get a priceless win.
Middlesbrough at best priced 7/5 with Unibet.
