FA Cup betting tips and other predictions for today. I am back again after missing out on yesterday’s predictions.

As for today’s match, my bet of the day will be Bristol City vs Manchester City.

Bristol City vs. Manchester City – analysis, team news, and prediction.

Match Preview

Bristol City will try to pull off the next FA Cup giant killing when Premier League champions Manchester City visit Ashton Gate for Tuesday’s fifth-round match. Bristol City has yet to lose in 2023.

Pep Guardiola’s crop thwarted Arsenal’s dreams of a record-extending 15th victory, and the Robins defeated West Bromwich Albion by a score of three to advance to round five.

Fact Check

• Both Bristol City and Manchester City have won 3 of their last 5 matches in all competitions.

• Bristol City plays in a lower division (Championship) while Manchester City plays in a higher division (Premier League).

Bristol City are doing very well at the moment

Nigel Pearson and Bristol City have been playing in a winter wonderland in the FA Cup and Championship as the weather heats up; they are still unbeaten since losing 2-0 to West Brom at home in the Christmas Day round of games.

Bristol City’s 12-game unbeaten streak in all competitions was extended with a 1-0 victory over Hull at the weekend.

Manchester City will want to repeat their performance against Bournemouth here.

In their last six games at Ashton Gate, they have won three.

The most superstitious Man City fans may not be too discouraged by this result, given that Leeds United, the last team to lose an FA Cup fifth-round match against Bristol City in 1973-74, went on to win the top-flight championship.

Saturday’s 4-1 victory over Bournemouth by Manchester City extended their unbeaten streak to five games.

Bristol and City will meet for the first time since City defeated Bristol 3-2 in 2018.

Head-to-head comparison

• Manchester City have won their previous 3 encounters with Bristol City across all competitions.

• Bristol City have witnessed over 2.5 goals in their previous 3 encounters with Manchester City across all competitions.

Bristol City’s team news

Sam Bell began up front for Bristol City in their 1-0 victory over Hull, but he might switch to the left to fill in for the suspended Anis Mehmeti.

In addition to Robert Atkinson, Ayman Benarous, Kane Wilson, Kal Naismith, and Tommy Conway being hurt, Harry Cornick also has a cup-tied foot.

Manchester City’s team news

Aymeric Laporte and Kevin De Bruyne have recently been ill, so they might not play at all, while John Stones is unlikely to recover from his injury in time.

Kalvin Phillips might make just his fourth City start following his summer transfer from Leeds, while Stefan Ortega and Sergio Gomez might alternate.

Expert’s opinion

The lead-up to Bristol City’s match against the Premier League champions could hardly have gone any better. Still, any notions that the Robins would extend their unbeaten streak here are undoubtedly not possible.

Man City should have little trouble disposing of their inferior opponents and securing their place in the quarterfinals for a fifth consecutive year, even with the number of changes anticipated.

Bristol City vs. Manchester City Prediction.

In what will be Bristol City’s toughest game of the season thus far, this ought to be a comfortable win for the visitors.

For this reason, my best tip is for Manchester City to win and over 2.5 goals to come on board @146.

However, my big odd prediction is for Manchester City to win with a -1 handicap @2.32.
