Read on for the best booking codes to use at Bet9ja this weekend, with all odds available at time of writing and in 90 minutes only:
Mansfield Town vs Arsenal
League One Mansfield Town face English Premier League leaders Arsenal in their FA Cup fifth round tie, and the Gunners are the overwhelming favourites to claim the victory and progress into the next round.
Mansfield are winless in their last four matches since scraping past Burnley in the fourth round of the FA Cup, losing two and drawing two of their League One fixtures, while Arsenal are undefeated in their last 10 matches.
Not only are Arsenal expected to win this game, but with the undeniable quality difference between the League One and English Premier League sides, the Gunners are expected to score several goals in this match.
Arsenal to win & over 2.5 goals, 1.25 – 55X298P
Newcastle United vs Manchester City
Newcastle United may be heading into this FA Cup clash off the back of a fantastic 2-1 victory over Manchester United, while Manchester City dropped points to Nottingham Forest, but the Citizens remain the favourites to win this one.
Man City have already won three times against Newcastle this season, with 2-0 and 3-1 victories in their EFL Cup semi-final tie, as well as a 2-1 triumph in the English Premier League at the end of March.
Given Man City’s dominance in those games and clear superior quality, we are backing the Citizens to win this one.
Manchester City to win, 1.97 – 55WZRRR
Fulham vs Southampton
Fulham head into this match off the back of a narrow defeat to West Ham United in the EPL, leaving the Cottagers aiming to immediately bounce back and return to the form that had seen them win three straight matches before the clash with the Hammers.
The Cottagers face a Southampton side who are undefeated in their last nine matches, featuring seven wins and two draws, leaving them with considerable confidence heading into this clash with the top division team.
However, Fulham have won three of the last four clashes between these two sides, while they are undefeated in their last three meetings at Craven Cottage, leading us to expect a Fulham win.
Fulham to win, 1.57 – 55X2KCX
Leeds United vs Norwich City
Lukas Nmecha has had a positive first campaign for Leeds United, scoring seven goals in all competitions, including a goal in their 1-1 draw with Birmingham City in the fourth round of the FA Cup, which Daniel Farke’s side went on to win on penalties.
With the striker expected to start against Norwich City, who have shown their defensive vulnerabilities this term with 44 goals conceded in 35 Championship fixtures, we are backing the forward to capitalise on their often vulnerable defence and get on the scoresheet.
Lukas Nmecha to score anytime, 2.40 – 55X2RPG
Overall Booking Code: 55X2XR7, Odds: 9.28
