Norwich City vs Manchester United Betting Tips – Red Devils to claim FA Cup semi spot

Norwich welcome Manchester United on Saturday evening as the two meet for the first FA Cup quarter-final. United are in very good form, but struggle to score on the road, which brings into play the goals markets.

Norwich have tried their best to mix it with the big boys, but a severe lack of points looks set to cost them their Premier League place. Prior to the lockdown break, Norwich City dumped Tottenham Hotspur out of the FA Cup on penalties at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The match ended 1-1.

That triumph was quickly followed by a disappointing 1-0 defeat at Sheffield United. Their first game back this month saw them thumped 3-0 by Southampton at Carrow Road, before a 1-0 defeat to Everton at home in their last fixture.

Norwich City have a clean bill of health from which to select their squad for this encounter.

Manchester United have improved as the season has progressed. Prior to the lockdown break, the Red Devils beat rivals Manchester City 2-0 at Old Trafford, before grabbing a fine 5-0 win away at LASK.

United drew 1-1 away at Tottenham Hotspur in their first match back from the break. They followed that up with an impressive 3-0 win over Sheffield United at Old Trafford. Anthony Martial scored all three goals to notch his first hat-trick for the club.

At this point Manchester United have a fully fit squad to choose from. This could change after their Premier League clash against Sheffield United.

Manchester United have a very fine record in this fixture and hold a 33-10 advantage in 53 matches. There have been 10 draws between the sides.

The last time these sides met was in January 2020. Manchester United recorded a thumping 4-0 win in a Premier League clash at Old Trafford. Marcus Rashford scored twice, while Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood netted the other goals.

Norwich City are priced at 5.50 to win, while Manchester United are available at 1.53. A draw pays 4.33.

Over 2.5 goals is paying 1.75, while under is valued at 2.05. Norwich can be backed at 17.00 to win on penalties and United at 15.00.

Manchester United are likely to have too much for Norwich City in this FA Cup encounter. The Red Devils have struggled for goals on the road this season, but given Norwich's lack of confidence at the moment, a slender United win looks likely.
