2011-02-20 - Manchester City vs Notts County

A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser

Analysis:

The winner of this fourth round replay will earn the right to meet Aston Villa in the fifth round. Notts County almost created an upset after Neal Bishop's opening goal but then Edin Dzeko rescued Manchester City to force the replay here today.

Notts County currently managed by Paul Ince has already dispatched off Sunderland in the previous round so they will be looking for another Premiership scalp here now.

Notts County beat Colchester 2-0 in midweek ahead of this encounter and that was their first league win since beating Hartlepool on 3rd January. It will be a tough task coming up against City who have won their last five league and cup games at Eastlands.

On Tuesday Manchester City managed to held Greek outfit Aris Salonika to a goalless stalemate in the first leg of their Europa League last-32 tie. The draw came after a derby draw with Manchester United and they will be looking to get a win here now.

As for the team news ahead of this match, Nigel de Jong is battling to overcome an ankle injury, whilst James Milner has a hamstring problem.

The good news is that Mario Balotelli is fit and Shaun Wright Phillips is itching to get involved in this match.

Meanwhile for Notts County, boss Ince could have Liam Chilvers available for this clash. He played in midweek for 75 minutes and is expected to be in volved in this match as a substitute. However, winger Lewis Gobern is doubtful with a thigh problem and on-loan midfielder David Martin will miss out with a groin injury.

However, winger Alan Judge also misses out again with a foot injury. Also further bad news is that loan duo Conor Clifford and Kevin McDonald are ineligible as they were not registered with the club before the original tie with City.

Take Manchester City and give the 2 balls here.

Cheers and good luck,
Cruiser
