- Aston Villa – 4/1
- Brighton – 5/1

Manchester City head into the quarter finals of the FA Cup at the end of the month as favourites for victory as the last team standing in the competition from the usual ‘Big 6’.
Pep Guardiola’s side recovered from a slight scare on Saturday, coming from behind to defeat Championship relegation strugglers Plymouth 3-1 to book their place in the last eight.
The FA Cup remains the Citizens’ final chance for any silverware this season having be knocked out prematurely of every other cup and 20 points off the pace in the Premier League, leaving them likely to go hell for leather in the FA Cup between now and the end of the season.
Aston Villa are priced as the second favourites at 4/1 to lift the FA Cup following their 2-0 win over Cardiff in the round five, and have been dealt a nice draw against Preston, the last non-top flight side remaining in the competition, in the last eight.
Villa boss Unai Emery has a strong record in cup competitions as manager, winning four Europa Leagues with Sevilla and Villarreal as well as six domestic cups in his two-year stint at PSG.
Brighton (5/1), Bournemouth and Fulham (both 7/1) are next in the odds list, the latter two seeking a first major trophy in the clubs’ history, while the Seagulls are looking for their first since winning the Charity Shield 115 years ago.
Crystal Palace, at 9/1, are another club without a major trophy to their name in with an outside shot of FA Cup victory this season, while Nottingham Forest (12/1), Ipswich (66/1) and Preston (150/1) are all priced further back.
Odds correct at the time of writing.
