Opta Bet Builder: FA Cup Final

A brilliant Europa League final has whetted the appetite for the FA Cup Final this weekend, when two titans of English football lock horns in a battle to claim the world’s oldest national cup.

Red or Blue. City or United?

The guys from OPTA have returned, scouring their records and using their incredible database of facts and stats to determine the best bets for this weekend’s marquee match.

Science rocks!

 

‘PHIL’ YOUR BOOTS

Since the start of April, only one Premier League player has more goals in all competitions than Phil Foden (9 in 9 games). Foden has also scored six goals in his last four starts against Manchester United.

 

GOALS GALORE

Manchester United’s five FA Cup matches this season have seen 22 goals scored at an average of 4.4 per game, with both sides scoring three goals each in each of the last two. Nine of their last 14 games in all competitions have seen 4+ goals scored.

 

PUNCH FOR PUNCH

Both teams have scored in five of the last six meetings between Manchester City and Manchester United, including in last season’s FA Cup final.

 

THE ODDS ARE ON!

Manchester City have scored an odd number of goals in 36 different matches this season, their most ever in a single season in their history.
