FA Cup
Mansfield comes from the English League 1, which is the third level of football in England. They are not doing well there, sitting 16th in the standings, having no wins in the last nine rounds and their last five home games. However, among those, they surprised Burnley as guests with a 2:1 victory in the FA Cup and reached a prestigious round of 16 against Arsenal, hoping to play a worthy match in front of their supporters.
Arsenal managed a narrow victory away at Brighton during the week and slightly increased their lead at the top, so there may be a temporary calm from that. Now rotations are expected for the FA Cup, but so far this has not hindered Arsenal in the tournament; on the contrary. In their previous two matches in the competition, they defeated Wigan 4:0 at home and Portsmouth 4:1 away. It seems that the question now is by how much they will win.
Prediction: under 4.5 goals, Arsenal to win with a clean sheetMansfield will come out to play a respectable match, but Arsenal, even with the rotations, is unlikely to slip up here. The question is how the victory for the guests will look, and my assumption is that it will come with a clean sheet and under 4.5 goals.
