How the FA Cup tips have gone

The FA Cup record starts with the first settled matchday. 0 tips for this competition are already frozen: the 1X2 or double chance line, over 1.5 and over 2.5 goals, both teams to score, the correct score, the half-time/full-time call and the first-half goal line for every rated match inside 40 hours of kick-off.

Once a round has been played, the hit rate, the flat-stake return and the best-performing market for the competition appear in this block. The same figures are broken down by market on the results pages, where every graded tip is listed with its chance and price.

A frozen tip cannot be edited or withdrawn after the freeze, so the FA Cup record reads the same way as the site-wide one: what was published, then what came in.

FA Cup odds comparison

Bookmakers have priced 38 of the coming FA Cup fixtures, with a median of 3 prices per outcome on a typical match. Taking the best price on each 1X2 outcome pays 93.5% of stakes across the round, against 93.4% at an average single bookmaker.

That gap of 0.1 points is what the comparison saves before any pick is made. Every match page lists each bookmaker's 1X2, over/under 2.5 and BTTS lines with the best price in each column marked. Partner bookmakers carry a Bet button and open through a counted link.

The edge printed beside a pick compares the model chance with that best price. The value bets page collects the largest gaps across every competition and the banker page the highest chances, with FA Cup rows included whenever they qualify.
