Runaway Favourites City Odds Slashed For Clean Sweep

Chelsea are edging Manchester United in the outright betting for the FA Cup after the highlight of the fifth round draw pitted the Premier League giants against each other.

We make Maurizio Sarri’s Blues the 5/1 second favourites to win the competition,

while Manchester United are 11/2 as they bid to match Arsenal’s all-time record of 13 FA Cup victories.

Manchester City are the clear favourites to walk up the Wembley steps as winners in May at 5/4 but their participation in next month’s EFL Cup Final does have punters thinking about how many trophies they will pick up come the end of the campaign.

Guardiola’s side are 1/2 to pick up the first trophy of the season by beating Chelsea but they have also been backed into 25/1 from 40/1 over the past week for an unprecedented clean sweep of silverware by winning both domestic Cup competitions, as well as the Premier League and Champions League titles.

They are 16/1 from 25/1 to win the same treble achieved by neighbours Manchester United 20 years ago.
