[Albion my Albion]

When both teams are actually trying do we have a chance for real?

 

[Is it PotG?]

Enjoy the day, make a racket and see what happens.

A win would be a lovely bonus.

The last option seems a good bet...

So the bookies have us at the same odds as taking a crap in the Queen's handbag - whilst she's holding it.

Question for the Gambling Stat people : When was the last time a team (pre-match prices) at 17/1 actually beat a team who were 1/8 ? If so, who - and when?

I'd imagine palace were longer odds when they beat City a couple of months ago.

That’s what I’m on

 

[Timbo]

Had a quick look through the odds on Bet365 and you can only get 12's on us there. A win for us on penalties seems a decent bet if you're optimistic enough to fancy us to go through at 33's.

The slider for the correct score goes as far as 9 for City, just the 3 for us!

Well we've lost all 3 matches in the Amex era and scored one goal.

Not sure 5/2 is a value bet, tbh.

I'm sat on a £10 EW @ 67-1 for us in the FA Cup put on back in the Summer, do it every year! I wish we'd drawn Watford!

I'm basing it on the fact both Newport and Swansea scored against City, so we must have a shout of getting one!

 

[Peter Grummit]

Best odds are 7/1 the draw; 2/11 City. https://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/fa-cup/man-city-v-brighton/winner

 

[hans kraay fan club]

I don't think 13/2 for the draw is particularly POOR value.

We could just GRIND our way to extra time.

Where do I get 17-1? William Hill is only offering 12-1.
17-1 might just tempt me to have a very small flutter - is a very high price for what is essentially a two horse race.

Good point well made. Although I'm not sure City will be quite so lackadaisical when faced with a Premier league side, two wins from one leg of a possible quadruple.

There's your problem - William Hill are a shit bookie. Paddy Power/Betfair Sportsbook are offering 17/1. The draw is a best priced 7/1 at Unibet.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

It's a cup game, so anything can happen. We've also knocked them out of two cup competitions in the past.

Having said that, I know nothing about bets and odds, so ignore me.

 

[Goldstone1976]

I’m waiting til the 88th minute when we’re 2-0 down, and they have taken off Aguero, Sterling and De Bruyne, before going LARGE at 150/1 to qualify.

Wigan were 25/1 to beat them in the cup 2 years ago.

Said it on another thread. Unlikely sussex double Brighton beat city and Gary Moore’s Traffic fluide for the National 482/1 £15 on it
