These were the semi-final results:

Sunday 21st April
Coventry City 3-3 Manchester United
Manchester United win 4-2 on penalties

Saturday 20th April
Manchester City 1-0 Chelsea

Th FA Cup final 2024 will take place between the two Manchester clubs just as they did last year. Coventry City came from 0-3 down to score three goals and take the game to extra-time before losing the penalty shoot out. As for Chelsea, they had a lot of chances to score and take a commanding lead before Manchester City scored a fortunate goal.

This is the first FA Cup semi-final taking place today Saturday 20th April:

Manchester City vs Chelsea

Last season Manchester City win the treble. Even though they are sitting top of the Premier League, they were knocked out by Real Madrid in the Champions League. I have a feeling Chelsea will win the game today and that would mean Manchester City would have only the Premier League as their only trophy target.

I will not be surprised if Manchester City end up without a trophy this season because I expect Chelsea to knock them out of the FA Cup today and I also expect Liverpool to win the Premier League.

Results from the FA Cup quarter-final games played on Sunday 17th March:

Chelsea 4-2 Leicester City
Manchester United 4-3 Liverpool






====================






Leicester City showed why they will probably be returning back to the Premier League next season because they played well against Chelsea. The Chelsea victory was tainted when their fans began to boo Sterling but they won the game 4-2 and will face Manchester City in the semi-final. In the other semi-final, Coventry City will play Manchester United. Both semi-finals will take place at Wembley Stadium.

These are the FA Cup quarter-final games taking place tomorrow Sunday 17th March:

Chelsea vs Leicester City
Manchester United vs Liverpool


On paper you would have to be confident Chelsea would beat Leicester City. As for the other game, any team could win it but even though Manchester United have home advantage it is Klopp that makes his final appearance at Old Trafford as Liverpool manager therefore they will be motivated too. It should be a good game to watch.

These are the results of the first FA Cup quarter-final games that were played today:

Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-3 Coventry City
Manchester City 2-0 Newcastle United


Many would have expected Manchester City to win their game against Newcastle United but the game of the day was between Wolves and Coventry City.

After coming back from a goal down, Wolves took the lead late in the game and it looked like a win for them but Coventry City did not give up and scored two late goals to make it to their first FA Cup semi-final since 1987 and that year they won the competition. What are the chances they will win the competition again in 2024?

These are the first two FA Cup quarter-final games being played tomorrow Saturday 16th March 2024:

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Coventry City
Manchester City vs Newcastle United


There is a derby between two West Midlands teams. Coventry City are the underdogs but I will hope they will the game. As for the other fixture, Manchester City are clearly favourites but Newcastle United are capable of causing an upset because they have nothing to play for this season and would like to end it with a trophy.

Manchester United vs Liverpool
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Coventry City


As it stands, most people would probably state Manchester City and Liverpool were favourites to win the trophy. After that there is not much to choose between Chelsea, Newcastle United and Manchester United. Least favourites have to be Leicester City, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Coventry City.

Here are the results in full for the 4th Round games that took place over the weekend:

Sunday 28th January
West Bromwich Albion 0-2 Wolverhampton Wanderers 
Watford 1-1 Southampton 
Liverpool 5-2 Norwich City 
Newport County AFC 2-4 Manchester United


Saturday 27th January
Ipswich Town 1-2 Maidstone Utd 
Everton 1-2 Luton Town
Leeds United 1-1 Plymouth Argyle 
Leicester City 3-0 Birmingham City 
Sheffield United 2-5 Brighton and Hove Albion 
Fulham 0-2 Newcastle United


I watched most of the Manchester United game and also saw highlights of the Liverpool game. Manchester United were pushed hard by Newport County and Liverpool were in control throughout their game. Yesterday Everton were knocked. Before that Manchester City knocked out Tottenham. Chelsea and Aston Villa will have a replay after their match ended 0-0 therefore it is too early to make a call about the team that will win the FA Cup.

Having said that, what are the odds on Leicester City winning because they are through to the 5th Round after a comfortable 3-0 win against Birmingham City and are sitting at the top of the Championship and are clearly on course to return to the Premier League.

These are the 4th Round fixtures being played Saturday 27th January

Ipswich Town vs Maidstone Utd
Everton vs Luton Town
Leeds United vs Plymouth Argyle
Leicester City vs Birmingham City
Sheffield United vs Brighton and Hove Albion
Fulham vs Newcastle United


It would be a great day for football and the FA Cup if Maidstone United managed to get a win at Ipswich Town, or get a draw and have the replay at their own ground. Other than that, I would expect Everton, Leeds United, Leicester City, Brighton and Fulham to win their games.

These are the results from the games played yesterday:

Bristol City 0-0 Nottingham Forest
Chelsea 0-0 Aston Villa
Sheffield Wednesday 1-1 Coventry City
Tottenham Hotspur 0-1 Manchester City

It was a night of missed opportunities in the Chelsea vs Aston Villa game therefore they will have to have a replay at Villa Park but Manchester City grabbed an 88th minute winner to go through to the 5th round.

After all the issues Everton had with points deductions at the hands of the Premier League and with trying to fight of relegation as a results of losing 10 points, it will be a stunning season for them if they won the FA Cup. It took them a replay to get past Crystal Palace and it is early at the moment, they are not favourites but as long as they are involved they will have a chance.

I will post all 3rd round results and 4th round fixtures later.

Everton is in next round, after beating Crystal Palace last night, great goal by Gomes
wasn't easy, and interesting statistics feat - both teams had 11 shots overall, 5 on target, 51/49 possession, so totally equal

Nottingham passed into next round as well, beating Blackpool

Everton is facing Luton on 27.01. in next round, beatable team for sure, but will be more important to win over them in League match in February

The score was correct at 2-1 but instead of guessing correctly that Manchester United would win it was Manchester City that won  Grin

I have to congratulate them on the win and on winning the domestic double. Having said that I saw the game and like Inter Milan would not be too worried. I think Inter Milan will win the Champions League final.

Looks like your choice was wrong because Manchester City managed to beat Manchester United with a score of 2 - 1.

It seems that Manchester United can't do much so I believe Manchester City can win easily and of course many football fans will support Manchester City's victory.
It is going to be the top English Premier League scorer against the English Premier League winner of most clean sheets kept in all the games played this season. Erling Haaland has scored three goals against Manchester United this season before, a good record for him against today's game and without Martinez for Manchester United in defence, Manchester United have a real task ahead of them in this game if they will win.

I am not supporting Manchester city to win this title, I will prefer Manchester United to win it, but unfortunately my wish may not be enough to stop this Manchester City team that has been excellent from winning this too.

Haaland is the only player who has scored the most goals for Manchester City this season and he even managed to bring Manchester City to become the team to fear in the Premier League.
Manchester City has always played well in 3 leagues this season.

I won the bet this time and it's the many times Manchester City have brought happiness to every bet I've made.
They have won 2 trophies in the Premier League and FA Cup, they are only a few days away from fighting for the Champions League trophy and have 3 trophies in one season.

RESULT:

Manchester City 2-1 Manchester United

Manchester City have completed the Premier League and FA Cup double. They are also in the final of the Champions League and if they overcome Inter Milan they will win the treble making them the second team after Manchester United in 1999 to achieve that record.

From a Manchester United perspective even if Manchester City win the Champions League against Inter Milan it would not mean a treble if they can win the game today. Also, they will be hoping they lost today and against Inter Milan.

From a Manchester City perspective, they are on the verge of making history and just two games are in their path, they will try their best to win those games therefore both cup finals will be entertaining games to watch  Grin
Manchester city are on the verge of making history with just one more title left to put on their name this season. For Manchester city today, it is Gundogan who has made history for them scoring twice almost three times had one not be denied for being offside.

Rashford's drop in form has affected Manchester United a lot, scoring goals has not been easy for them. Garnacho was a good player to bring in, he even had some more shots on goal than Sancho. Manchester United had a good tactics to win the game, but they lack the quality of players to execute it. As soon as Wout Weghorst was brought in, it dawned on me that Manchester United's chances to score had reduced with him.

Congratulations to Pep Guardiola and all Manchester players, they deserve the win.

Manchester City have been brilliant throughout most of the season and they are clearly odds-on favourites to win as far as most bookmakers are concerned but Manchester United is the only British team ever to have completed a treble in the same season consisting of the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League therefore they will try their best to stop Manchester City winning today.

From a Manchester United perspective even if Manchester City win the Champions League against Inter Milan it would not mean a treble if they can win the game today. Also, they will be hoping they lost today and against Inter Milan.

Overall because of the history of what is at stake I think Manchester United will end up winners as Manchester City will not be able to live up to the pressure of being the in the hunt for the treble. I said it a different thread and will reiterate (my opinion here) I think Manchester City will lose both the FA Cup final against Manchester United and the Champions League final against Inter Milan

 Let's hope that Man City will forfeit this one since there's Champions league finals at the corner. But knowing Pep, I think he'd want to take the trebles since after this game, they'd have like seven days rest. I also doubt it would be one sided because this is not just any Manchester derby but a decider between who would be the winner.
 If Man UTD would like to carry this cup, they would have to earn it and what I mean by that is, not being comfortable when they score just a goal, since Man City are good at coming from under, and do well to ensure that their defensive wall is not having any loose ends.
  In a way I see the game going to penalties while at another angle, I see Man UTD taking the Cityzens by surprise.

The odds you received will be changing periodically as always happens and I only listed the odds that Sky gave (Manchester City: 8/15, DRAW: 100/30, Manchester United: 9/2) but to be honest I have no interest on the odds because this game will be too difficult to call.

This game could be a one sided demolition which sees either team winning 5-0 or it could be close with either team winning 1-0. It could be decided in extra-time or go to penalties.

Overall because of the history of what is at stake I think Manchester United will end up winners as Manchester City will not be able to live up to the pressure of being the in the hunt for the treble. I said it a different thread and will reiterate (my opinion here) I think Manchester City will lose both the FA Cup final against Manchester United and the Champions League final against Inter Milan.

But sorry there was an error, I got Odds 1.50 but previously wrote 1.60, I hope you can understand that.
