Live on ESPN: Mon 19.45: Everton are 4/11 (bet365) to beat Cheltenham in the FA Cup but the Toffees might have to do it the hard way.
Everton are 4/11 at bet365 to get the better of League Two Cheltenham at Whaddon Road and having won three of their four fixtures over the festive period the Toffees don’t look especially vulnerable ahead of this one.
Nevertheless, a long journey south for a muddy, Monday night battle in a tight little ground won’t exactly delight David Moyes’ men who might not have things all their own way.
They’re certainly shaky enough at the back at present to concede a goal, thus Skybet’s 6/5 for both teams to score stands out and there’s plenty to like about Ladbrokes’ 3/1 for Everton to sneak it by a one-goal margin.
No strangers to falling behind, Moyes’ charges have overturned deficits in five of their last six victories so it’s not out of the question that they’ll have to turn things around in this one.
Bet365’s 10/3 for Cheltenham to strike first isn’t without appeal then while Stan James offer an enticing 8/1 about Everton being in arrears only to recover before going on to eventually prevail.
Recommended Bets:
Everton to win from behind – 8/1 (Stan James)
Everton to win by a one-goal margin – 3/1 (Ladbrokes)
