bet365 match odds: Bristol City 8/15, Draw 31/10,  Bolton 13/2

Bristol City are 8/15 favourites to eliminate Bolton and reach the fifth round of the FA Cup for the first time since 2001. 

Lee Johnson’s side are in remarkable form having won their last five games on the trot. This latest winning run has helped Bristol up the Championship table into 7th place.

They take on a Bolton side who are in dire straits. Fan protests, poor run of form and financial uncertainty have plagued the club in recent times. Phil Parkinson’s side now face a fight to avoid relegation to League One.

Bolton have won two from 19 games in all competitions with that last victory coming in the previous round of the FA Cup; a 5-2 win over Walsall. What’s more, they have conceded 12 goals in four games which certainly isn’t helping their case for survival. 

Bristol, meanwhile, are unbeaten in 11 games across all competitions. They even recorded a victory over Premier League outfit Huddersfield Town in the previous round of the Cup. 

In terms of the betting, Bristol alone don’t offer much value. However, with the team keeping a clean sheet in four of their last five games, the ‘win to nil’ bet at 13/10 may be worth considering. 

Another potential bet could be in the handicap market. Bristol minus a goal is currently 13/8 which isn’t a bad price considering Bolton’s recent defensive woes.
