BETTING: COULD A CUP RUN BECKON?

Posted on: Fri 01 Jan 2010

Place your bets on the magic of the FA Cup!

Wigan and Hull City are two of the three Premier League sides who have yet to play in an FA Cup Final.  The Latics best effort in the famous old competition was in 1987 when we made it to the Quarter Finals.

Roberto Martinez' men can be backed at odds of 67.0 to win the cup this season and emulate Portsmouth who broke the big four stranglehold in 2008.

The first hurdle to be overcome is Hull City.The Tigers beat Wigan at the KC Stadium earlier in the season but their away form has been very poor, only scoring five goals on their travels and Wigan are deserving 1.9 favourites to win the tie.

Last season this fixture in the Premier League produced a 1-0 home win and it could be worth a sporting punt this weekend at odds of 6.50.
