Football predictions and betting tips for Friday’s FA Cup match between Arsenal and League One Coventry City where the Premier League leaders will be looking to avoid an upset.

Friday night’s FA Cup action comes from north London, as top of the Premier League pile Arsenal host Coventry City, who are sat around mid-table in League 1.

The Sky Blues earned their trip to The Emirates courtesy of a 2-1 victory away at Barnsley whilst the Gunners saw off bitter rivals Tottenham Hotspur in the pick of the third round FA Cup ties. Arsenal are undoubtedly favourites for the match and we simply cannot ignore them when looking for our football predictions, and rightly so. They have been incredibly impressive this season, and Wenger has a squad and crucially the depth in personnel to suggest that this could be the year they can finally start dusting the Emirates trophy cabinet and preparing it for some silverware.

Indeed, Wenger has seemed to take cup competitions a lot more seriously this season than he has in past. First team regulars have featured in Arsenal cup sides this term far more than fans are used to, and I would assume that trend will continue which is important for our football tips, as they must view a domestic cup as their most realistic opportunity to end their trophy-less spell.

Arsenal come into the game in fine form, having not lost since their visit to the Etihad just before Christmas, and they must look at this as a favourable draw, especially after having played Spurs to have reached this stage. Coventry themselves are on a decent run of form, their loss also coming before the 25th December. However, Arsenal look as though they mean business this year and should make the hat for the fifth round draw without any real problems.

Arsenal do look an incredibly professional outfit this season, and in recent years they could have been vulnerable to a cup upset, but they seem to be playing with even more confidence and swagger than usual. Bet Victor offer odds of 4/5 for the Gunners to win to nil, which is what will be expected of them against lower league opposition for our first football tip. Should Olivier Giroud or Lukas Podolski start they should have far too much quality for Coventry, so backing either to score should be a useful avenue to go down. Betfred offer 4/7 on Giroud to score anytime, and odds of 8/11 on Podolski.

Of course, this is the FA Cup and it wouldn’t be the tournament it is today without the odd giant killing or two. I really can’t see Coventry producing such a display away to Arsenal, but with the magic of the cup you just never know, and Bet365 offers 13/2 for Coventry-Draw Double Chance. It’s unlikely, improbable, but we see it in at least one fixture every round. I can’t see it happening, and personally think Arsenal will cruise into the fifth round draw (Winner.com offers 19/20 on Arsenal winning by a margin of three goals or more), and continue their pursuit of silverware, which looks more and more like a realistic target as the seasons goes on.
