Bournemouth vs Wolves
Cup Fifth Round Accumulator, Predictions & Betting Suggestions
Details: Saturday, March 1st, 3.00 pm, Vitality Stadium
Bournemouth suffered a devastating home defeat to Wolves in their last league encounter, leaving many stunned. The Cherries were forced to play with ten men after center back Illia Zabarnyi's dismissal for dangerous play. Despite the setback, Bournemouth have enjoyed a fantastic season, and they're eager to get revenge on their rivals.
For Wolves, their 1-0 victory was a massive three points as it moved them further away from the relegation zone. Matheus Cunha, a standout player for Wolves all season, played a pivotal role once again. If Wolves manage to keep him past the summer, they could set their sights on a Wembley appearance.
Given Bournemouth's determination to right the wrongs from their loss, I'm backing them to come out on top in this one.
Bournemouth to win @ 7/10
Manchester Utd vs Fulham
Details: Sunday, March 2nd, 4.30 pm, Old Trafford
Manchester Utd's latest outing was a classic rollercoaster ride against Ipswich. They conceded a ludicrous goal to fall behind before grinding out a 3-2 win despite playing with ten men. The Red Devils may need to tighten up defensively if they're to avoid similar calamities in the future.
Fulham's home defeat to Palace was disappointing, leaving them looking a bit bereft of ideas. Marco Silva will be eager for a quick response, and there's no better opportunity than a Sunday evening showdown at Old Trafford. With the Cottagers safe in the league,Expect them to target cup success.
I'm picking Fulham to pull off an upset in this one and progress to the next round.
Fulham to win @ 9/5
Nottingham Forest vs Ipswich
Details: Monday, March 3rd, 7.30 pm, City Ground
Forest are a force to be reckoned with this season, as they proved by holding Arsenal to a scoreless draw in their last outing. The championship side has shown signs of being more than just a one-season wonder, and a cup win would serve as a fantastic addition to an already impressive campaign.
Ipswich were handed a damaging defeat by Man City, despite playing with a man advantage for over half the game. The gaps between them and safety are now growing, and their focus may begin to shift away from the cup.
I'm backing Forest to secure a comfortable home win and make it through to the next round.
Forest to win @ 3/4
