Cheltenham Town vs Manchester City Prediction & Betting Tips - FA Cup
by Daniel Ngulu | in FA Cup Predictions
Cheltenham are set to play what would pass as their biggest match this season, when they host Manchester City in the FA Cup Fourth Round on Saturday. In the last round, they took on fellow League Two side Mansfield Town and had to come from down to win it 2-1 in extra time. That remains their only win in the last nine matches but Cheltenham are unbeaten in the last five matches. If their last nine matches are put in focus, their recent performance has been great. The team went on a run of three losses and a draw before the current run of four draws and a win. Against Manchester City they will need to tighten up at the back, having registered just two clean sheets in the last 15 matches. Cheltenham are sixth in the League Two standings, and are promotion hopefuls. However, they have shown a big weakness defensively. At 23 goals, no team in the top six has conceded more than Cheltenham.
Manchester City, on the other hand, registered their ninth straight win and 16th unbeaten outing in the 2-0 victory over Aston Villa on Wednesday. It was also their fifth straight clean sheet, and they had to really dig deep. City are coming from four straight home matches but they will definitely not be worried about an away trip to Cheltenham. The first of their four home games was the 3-0 win over Birmingham in the third round of this competition. They have scored 12 goals in the last five matches and in the last 12 FA Cup matches, they have lost just once. The only loss came in the semi finals last season, a 2-0 reverse against last season’s eventual winners, Arsenal. They go to this clash on four clean sheets in the last five matches in this competition.
