FA CUP ........


Two final bets for this afternoon's action. I will return after the UK football, with some news for tonight's Spanish/ French football and the NFL play-offs.


Coventry are in very poor form and have collected just one point in 5 starts, conceding 13 goals in the process. The single point coming in a home draw with relegation strugglers Southend, who outplayed the Sky Blues. Coach Micky Adams is under severe pressure and the whole team is showing the strain.


They go to Ashton Gate, which is a stronghold for Bristol City, who have a 10-2-1 record there. These two could easily be in the same division next season and the home side look a little value, at the odds on offer.


Leicester City tend to raise their game at home in the cup and knocked out Tottenham at this stage last season. The host Fulham today, who are without several key players including goalkeeper Niemi, who will be sorely missed. Their supporters are very upset, by the club selling all their prize assets, Boa Morte being the latest, in a very long line.


City and their fans are sure to "be up for it" today and can take the Premiership side to a replay at least.


3 points Bristol City -1/2 ball 2.40 Betfair.

4 points Leicester City +1/4 ball asian line 1.80.


Good Luck.
