FA Cup 6th Round

Let’s take a look ahead to the FA Cup Quarter-Finals shall we?

First up we’ve got Middlesbrough V Manchester United. I’m not going to predict a score, as we all know anything can happen in a cup competition! So I’ll just predict an overall winner, in this instance I think it will be Manchester United. Middlesbrough usually perform amazing against the bigger clubs, especially at the Riverside Stadium but I think United are on course for the treble and I can’t see Boro stopping them this weekend.
My Prediction: Manchester United to progress

Blackburn Rovers V Manchester United. This match features my team Manchester City, am I going to be biased? I’d love to be! The fact of the matter is we’re simply not good enough to progress. Blackburn should have this one in the bag. City are sloppy at times and are languishing in the league. That said, if there is a team capable of a shock it is us!
My Prediction: Blackburn Rovers to progress

Chelsea V Tottenham. A massive clash, the tie of the round. A London derby that pits two quality sides hoping to progress to the semi-finals. Both teams have done well in cup competitions this season but I think Chelsea will have enough in the tank to edge past Spurs on this occasion.
My Prediction: Chelsea to progress

Plymouth Argyle V Watford. Championship side Plymouth play host to Premiership side Watford in a typical David and Golliath style battle. I’d love to see Plymouth progress to the semi-finals. What a great acheivement for Ian Holloway that would be! Sadly my head has to rule my heart and the Premiership side should cruise past Plymouth.
My Prediction: Watford to progress
Middlesbrough, Watford, Plymouth Argyle, Manchester United, Manchester City, Blackburn Rovers, Ian Holloway, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, FA Cup, 6th Round
