Football Tips: FA Cup Takes Centre Stage on Sunday

THE Bundesliga signed off in style on Saturday with a goalsfest that was widely predicted. 34 goals were scored and most punters would  have cashed in on the Over 2.5 market with all but one match reaching that tally.

Those backing Dortmund would've had their fingers burned one last time by Lucien Favre's side who's campaign came to a somewhat embarrasing end with a 4-0 defeat at home to Hoffenheim, for once the players would have been glad not have had the famous Yellow Wall behind them.

In England Man Utd laboured to a quarter-final win against 10-man Norwich in extra-time and in the Premier League another match was goalless at half-time before Wolves scored the only goal at Villa Park.

Sunday sees another raft of FA Cup and Premier League matches and we've got unique previews and tips for each of them;

• Sheffield Utd v Arsenal Match Preview & Tips – FA Cup – Sunday 1.00pm
• Leicester v Chelsea Match Preview & Tips – FA Cup – Sunday 4.00pm
• Watford v Southampton Preview & Tips – Premier League – Sunday 4.30pm
• Newcastle v Man City Match Preview & Tips – FA Cup – Sunday 6.30pm
• Crystal Palace v Burnley Match Preview & Tips – Premier League – Monday 8.00pm

Despite a disappointing league campaign by their standards, Manchester City still have a cup treble in their sights. They've already got the League Cup in the bag and are favourites to win both the FA Cup and Champions League. Pep Guardiola has already admitted that their match against Newcastle would be their most important this week so expect a strong line-up in the 6.30 kick-off.

Mikel Arteta will also see cup competitions as his most realistic opportunity to add silverware to The Emirates Stadium's trophy room, but Sheffield United will be no pushovers despite an unimpressive restart to their season.

In Belarus, Greg got his weekend tips off to a winning start with FC Minsk racking up the corners at home but his bid for 9-in-a-row fell short in the Neman Grodno v Dinamo Brest match. He's got two more Belarusian tips for Sunday so don't miss those.

Both Thommo and Voice Of Value tipped Limato who won at 5/1 so hats off to them. Thommo also added Volkan Star at 13/8 and Rainbow Dreamer ran to a place at 9/1 e/w for those who took 5 places in the Northumberland Plate.

Vive la Difference is the pick of Thommo's tips for Hamilton Park on Sunday.

MrFixit is still off work recovering and if he has any tips he'll post them in the comments section. Best of luck for your bets on Sunday!
