Arsenal at Blackpool 1/5/19 - FA Cup Picks & Predictions

Arsenal bounced right back from a massive loss to Liverpool last week and destroyed Fulham on New Year’s. They have not been in the best of shapes in this festive period but they now have an easy task ahead of them. They will be hosted by League One side Blackpool on Saturday for the FA Cup and this is a great shot to find some stability.

Blackpool are having a really mediocre season so far in the League One, sitting at the 10th spot of the league table. They have 35 points and are already 10 points behind the top-six spots that grant entrance to the promotion playoffs. In their last match they met a tough 1-0 loss at home and proved that they are in really bad form lately (0-4-2). However, they have been pretty solid at home so far in all competitions (9-5-4). They have not won any of their last three home matches (0-2-1) but prior to that they had three consecutive wins. Arsenal destroyed fellow Londoners Fulham on Tuesday by a massive 1-4 at home. The match was actually up for grabs until very late, but Arsenal sealed the three points with two late goals. They really needed a confidence boost after a massive 1-5 loss against Liverpool, and that was actually their second win in their last six matches in all competitions (2-3-1). Arsenal were excellent on the road for the entire season but they have been unable to win any of their last four away matches (0-2-2).
