Bet on Man City - get a refund if they lose
Any regular readers of Betfair Football will be well aware that we are huge admirers of Roberto Mancini's record in domestic cups, as he won the Coppa Italia four times in eight seasons as a coach in Italy, claiming the trophy within two years of his arrival at Fiorentina, Lazio and Inter Milan.
That's why Manchester City's position ahead of Chelsea in the betting at [6.4] to win the FA Cup this year comes as no surprise and it is also why we expect them to justify short odds of [1.45] to triumph away to Notts County in Sunday's ITV-televised fourth round tie.
Thanks to our special offer for those opening new Betfair accounts, you can bet up to £30 on this match or anything else that catches your eye within seven days of signing up and any losing wagers will be refunded, so there's no absolutely no risk involved.
Notts County are proving very difficult to beat under new boss Paul Ince, suffering only one defeat in their last ten games, while they were also one of the most impressive performers in the third round as they achieved an unthinkable 2-1 victory over Sunderland at the Stadium of Light.
The Magpies are [8.0] to deliver further heroics but they're not carrying the same momentum into this fixture as they took to Wearside having gone three matches without a win and lost their previous home outing against Carlisle, while Manchester City are a considerable step up even from Sunderland.
The Citizens have triumphed eight times on their travels this season and head into this encounter with a point to prove after their recent Premier League setback against Aston Villa in a game they dominated. A loss-proof flutter on the half-time/full-time away successful is also worth considering at [2.12].
