FA Cup: Middlesbrough vs Aston Villa odds for January 06, 2024

Middlesbrough vs Aston Villa

 

I am betting Aston Villa to beat Boro at home in the evening kick off on Saturday, this is a fixture where Boro could rotate their players more than Villa and that is because they have a huge match at home to Chelsea in the EFL cup semi final first leg on Tuesday evening. Again just like Sunderland v Newcastle match there is a massive difference in terms of quality between both sides and Boro are on a bad run of form too with losses to Rotherham and Coventry at home and getting a fortunate win away to Huddersfield in between. Aston Villa should have too much so betting them -1 here. I am also betting over 3 goals scored, Boro can certainly get on the score sheet and their games have the 7th highest amount of goals per game in the Championship so I believe over 3 is worth a bet too.

Aston Villa -1 min odds 1.85
Over 3 Goals scored min odds 1.92
