Fleetwood Town vs Bristol City Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

With a place in the fourth round of the FA Cup the prize, we are backing both teams to score when Fleetwood host Bristol City on Tuesday night and this is available at 7/10 with bet365. For our correct score tip we see it being quite a closely fought contest, but even though there is a division between the sides we think Fleetwood will spring a minor upset with a 2-1 victory, which is priced at 10/1 with the same site.

Many predicted Fleetwood to struggle this season but with 18 points from their last eight games in the league and a place in the FA Cup fourth round on the cards it can be counted as a very successful one. The Cod Army have built this success on the back of an excellent home record and, although Highbury is more associated with a slightly better known club in London, it is quickly becoming one of the most feared places to visit in all of League One.

One thing that has been fairly common place for Fleetwood this season is the occurrence of both teams scoring, this is something which has happened in 65% of their matches this season. It is also something that has plagued their visitors, Bristol City, as 69% of their away games have finished with both teams scoring.

The fact that Bristol have only failed to score in 23% of their away matches will give them great confidence, but as they have only kept clean sheets in 8% of those same matches it makes our both teams to score tip look extremely likely. The form of the Robins is also extremely poor, and with the side seemingly in free-fall in the Championship at the moment, an FA Cup upset could be on the cards.
