Coventry v Sheffield Wednesday – Click here to bet
Coventry had a comfortable passage through to the 4th Round, beating Oxford United 6-2 at home in the 3rd Round. They were then even money favourites to see off Sheffield Wednesday away in Round 4, but the game finished 1-1 with Sheffield Wednesday equalising in the 84th Minute.
Coventry lost 2-1 away to Norwich in the League on the weekend.
Sheffield Wednesday beat Cardiff 4-0 in their 3rd Round match to book their spot in the next phase of the Tournament. They would have been delighted with the replay with that late winner, but are in very poor form with 2 draws and 3 losses in their last 5 starts across all competitions.
Both teams to score is priced at 5/6 and this would have arrived in the last 8 Coventry matches across all competitions and I am going to back that streak to continue.
Suggested Bet: Both teams to score, YES, at 5/6
Plymouth v Leeds – Click here to bet
Plymouth beat Sutton 3-1 in Round 3 before drawing 1-1 with Leeds in the 4th Round. Leeds had taken the lead in the 31st minute only for Plymouth to hit back in the 73rd to force a replay. Plymouth have been in decent form across all competitions and are unbeaten in their last 6 matches.
Leeds saw off Peterborough 3-0 in their 3rd Round and they would have been disappointed not to get the win at home the first time of asking against Plymouth. Like Plymouth they are in good form and they have won 6 and drawn 1 of their last 7 matches across all competitions.
These sides met earlier in the season in the Championship with Leeds winning 2-1 at home.
Leeds are 7/10 for the win here, but that looks a bit short for my money and I think that Plymouth are the value in the Double Chance market which means they can either win the game in 90 minutes or draw.
Suggested Bet: Double Chance, Plymouth or draw at 23/20

Southampton v Watford – Click here to bet
Southampton were comfortable victors over Walsall in Round 3 winning 4-0 and they started marginal favourites away to Watford, but fell behind to a 5th minute strike by the home team. Watford looked to be heading to the next Round until an 89th minute Southampton equaliser.
Southampton have been in excellent form in League and Cup and haven’t been beaten in the last 3 months.
Watford beat Chesterfield 2-1 at home, a game where they were priced as 7/20 favourites in the 3rd Round. Watford saw a 7 match unbeaten run across all competitions ended on the weekend when they lost 1-0 away to Cardiff in the League, but 5 of those 7 matches had ended in draws.
Watford also hosted Southampton in the Championship earlier in the season with that game also finishing 1-1.
Southampton are 11/20 for the win and I do think they will be too strong for Watford, but it could be a tighter game than the bookies expected and I am going for Southampton to win by exactly 1 goal.
Suggested Bet: Handicap, Southampton -1, the draw at 29/10
