FA Cup 2018-19 – Chelsea vs Manchester United Betting Preview
By far the most anticipated FA Cup 5th round tie. Chelsea host Manchester United at Stamford Bridge for a place in the Quarter Final!
To begin with the hosts Chelsea, well it’s about as inconsistent as it gets, sometimes play well, sometimes an absolute travesty. Just looking at Chelsea’s last 10 games their form is WLWLWWLWLW.
The past couple of weeks have especially been rough for Chelsea as they saw themselves lose 4-0 to Bournemouth which then was their biggest BPL loss, however they lost by a record margin again last Sunday when they lost 6-0 to Man City. Now in between they did beat Huddersfield 5-0 and Malmo in UEL 1-2 this Thursday, but it’s clear as day that Chelsea are not playing well at all, in fact horrible.
Maurizio Sarri is a joke. 0-2 down and this man makes a RB for RB sub while Hudson-Odoi continues to sit on the bench. Disgusting, I'm glad fans chanted "F*** Sarri Ball" I hate this manager. He's the worst we've had in the Roman era, there's a reason he's never won a title. Bottler. Rather have Zola to finish the season
Man this EFL Cup Final was so heartbreaking.. Actually got it right for once, Pedro is an idiot for not shooting from a few yds out, losing on Pens sucks, showed effort though but I wonder if this can last
What a fight from Brighton against Man City in the FA Cup Semi. Really enjoyable game, City came through but Brighton honestly gave them a very TOUGH game. The quadruple quest is still on however for City
Coppa Italia 2018-19 Final – Atalanta vs Lazio Betting Preview

This will be Atalanta’s 4th Coppa Italia Final, first since 1996 having won it just once before in 1963 which is still the only top tier trophy is clubs history, they will look to snap a 56 year trophy drought with a win here.
Atalanta have been fantastic in this Coppa Italia run this year just like their whole season really having beaten Cagliari, best team in the league Juventus by an incredible 3-0 score and they beat Fiorentina over 2 legs while scoring 2+ goals in all of their cup games totalling 10 goals in 4 games in the competition.
As for Lazio, well it’s their 10th Coppa Italia Final having won the previous 6 most recently in 2013 they will seek to snap a 6 year trophy drought with a win here. This will be Lazio’s 4th Coppa Italia Final since 2013, however they have lost each of their last 2 in 2015 and 2017 after winning their 6 of 8 Coppa Finals.
Lazio move tied with Inter for 3rd most Coppa Italia titles with 7! (1958, 1998, 2000, 2004, 2009, 2013, 2019). They’ve won 5 Of them during this century
City won 6-0 against Watford... what a phenomenal performance by City man, only 3rd ever to score 6 goals in the FA Cup Final, first since 1903 and ties for the largest win in the FA Cup Final ever (Bury 6-0 Derby in 1903). A result that really sums up Manchester City under Pep. DOMINANT.

2019 Dutch Super Cup – Ajax vs PSV Eindhoven Preview
This weekend we have a cracking tie between the top 2 Dutch sides as the defending league and cup champions Ajax take on the 2nd placed last season PSV side for the Dutch Super Cup!
After a 5 year drought, Ajax is coming off a season where they finally managed to snatch up the league title beating PSV by 3 points in the table while also adding a KNVB Beker (Dutch Cup) title and were just seconds away from reaching the Champions League Final. Ajax will be hoping to carry the momentum from last year into this year as they seek to win their first Dutch Super Cup since 2013.
However, having sold a couple of very huge players in de Ligt and de Jong many will be wondering how much that might potentially hurt Ajax. Ajax did bring in a few decent players though in Quincy Promes who could potentially start in the attack given that Ziyech hasn’t played in pre-season yet and a couple of young Centre Backs in Edson Alvarez, Lisandro Martinez and Kik Pierre and will be hoping that either one of them can fill the boots of de Ligt.
What a crazy few days in Efl cup man.. Colchester beats Tottenham, chelsea score 7, Rochdale take United to Pens, oxford beats West Ham 4-0, burton knocks out Bournemouth and then the Next round draw sees liverpol arsenal and Man Utd Chelsea get each other wow
