Aston Villa blow a 2-0 lead as Arsenal show their stomach for the FA Cup fight...

Arsenal made it into the FA Cup fifth round as expected, but they did things the hard way at The Emirates.

The out of form Gunners found themselves 2-0 down to their Aston Villa at half-time after goals from Richard Dunne and Darren Bent, drifting out to [9.2] for the win on Betfair.

But punters who took that big in-play price didn't have to wait long to see it crash as the home team wasted no time getting stuck into the visitors, who were backed at [1.45]. Three goals were scored in seven minutes, with two despatched from the spot by Robin van Persie, as Alex McLeish's men crumbled under the onslaught.

The 3-2 final score was backed at [60.0]. Arsenal, who will go to Sunderland or Middlesbrough in the next round, are [7.2] to win the Cup.

Those north-east rivals couldn't be separated in the day's early kick-off with Boro threatening an upset after Barry Robson fired them ahead.

Fraizer Campbell, returning to action after 18 months out, pulled Sunderland back into the game with a second-half equaliser to force a replay and deny Middlesbrough backers at a low of [1.98].

Sunderland are [27.0] to win the Cup and Boro [180.0].
