Sunderland boss Gus Poyet will be urging his side to use the pain of the defeat against City to knock out Hull; so setting up what would be a spirit-lifting return to Wembley for a semi-final in a month's time and the chance for a second shot at the club's first major silverware in 41 years. He might be mindful, given his side's precarious standing in the Premier League – they are currently 18th in the table – that a tilt at FA Cup glory could prove an unnecessary distraction from the club's main aim of retaining their top flight status. But the Cup should be given the respect it deserves and he will no doubt set up his side to go all out for the win.

Fabio Borini looked the man of the moment for the Black Cats last Sunday as he put his side ahead in the first half, but his effort was ultimately to prove in vein as City responded supremely in the second half, putting 3 goals past a helpless Sunderland defence. The on-loan forward, having failed to impress at parent club Liverpool, is spending the season with Sunderland and further goals from him will be key if they are ultimately to ensure their Premier League survival, while he would certainly love another chance to perform at Wembley.

Can he come up with another goal this weekend? With odds of 18/5 for him to score anytime with Bet Victor we are putting this up as our first football tip. So for our first betting tip back Sunderland's Fabio Borini as an anytime goalscorer at 18/5 with Bet Victor.

Hull boss Steve Bruce will similarly be looking to use a recent defeat to spur on his team this weekend, after they were routed 4-1 at home by an indifferent Newcastle United in the League last weekend. Though the headlines from that game centred on Alan Pardew's misdemeanors on the touchline, Bruce will have more likely been kept awake by his side's poor defending and he'll know that a similar display will likely see them waving goodbye to their FA Cup dreams on Sunday. 

Though Bruce won't be able to call upon January acquisitions Nikica Jelavic and Shane Long, with the two forwards cup-tied for the game, the exquisite passing ability of midfielder Tom Huddlestone, a notable omission from Roy Hodgson's England squad in midweek, could really open up Sunderland's shaky defence on Sunday. And with Hull not particularly solid at the back themselves, we think there could be a few goals in this one – so for our next football betting tip bet on both teams to score at best odds of 11/10 with Coral.

Bruce's side will be able to take confidence from their recent 2-0 victory away to Sunderland in the League and we think that, with their home fans right behind them as they seek to secure a high-profile trip to the capital, Hull have the ability to inflict further cup misery on the Black Cats. So for our final betting tip back Hull for a victory at a best price of 23/20 with Bet365.
