Competition: FA Cup
Market: Bradford to win against Reading
Odds: 17/11 @ 888 Sport
Giant-killers Bradford City host Reading in the FA Cup quarter-finals, with the League One side favourites to reach the semis, despite being a division below Saturday’s opponents. Reading have been struggling in the Championship this season, and have looked very unconvincing playing away from home. Bradford have lost just once on home soil since November, while beating Chelsea and Sunderland in the previous rounds.
The Bantams have beaten Halifax Town, Dartford, Millwall, Chelsea and Sunderland to make it this far, while Reading faced Huddersfield, Cardiff City and Derby County. They have picked up just one league win in their last six, and face Bradford at a bad time. As a result, 888 Sport are giving odds of 17/11 for City to win against the Royals, booking their place in the semi-finals.
Saturday’s clash promises to be enthralling, and with Bradford City or Reading guaranteed to be in the 2015 FA Cup semi-final, the competition is certainly all to play for. Manager Phil Parkinson said his side face a different challenge with Reading, as it’s the first time Bradford are favourites to beat a side one league above.
