Get 50-1 on a goal to be scored in Newcastle vs Manchester City with Betfair

Newcastle won the EFL Cup last season but their hunger for an FA Cup success is undiminished as they have not won the famous competition since 1955 and have not even reached the final since 1999.

Manchester City know all about big FA Cup visits to Wembley having played in the last three finals, but they have lost the last two against Manchester United and Crystal Palace and would no doubt love the opportunity to lift the trophy again this year.

Pep Guardiola's side have had the better of the team's meetings this year, winning 2-0, 3-1 and 2-1 in the last three clashes after the Magpies won their first Premier League meeting of the season 2-1.

The last 42 meetings between the teams, stretching back to 2006, have all produced at least one goal, so the chances of the deal Betfair are offering to new customers being triggered are pretty good.

The real odds for a goal to be scored in the game are 1-00, so Betfair’s offer of 50-1 for a goal to be scored looks generous, and punters also have the chance to boost their Cheltenham Festival betting banks with a £10 free bet on the action in the Cotswolds.
