Betting Odds for FA Cup
Be sure to check back to this page regularly for the latest odds for FA Cup games coming up in the football season.
The FA Cup begins each summer with the preliminary rounds.
The competition welcomes Football League teams at the first round, Premier League teams in the third round, and goes all the way to the final at Wembley in May.
There are 732 teams competing in the FA Cup – and even a Premier League team needs to get through five rounds of the tournament to reach the final.
Of course, the FA Cup odds favour the big boys.
The likes of Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea are all towards the top of the market for who will win the FA Cup betting.
With all that said, in recent years, teams outside the Big Six have won the trophy – and could do so again.
The beauty of FA Cup betting isn’t solely placing a wager on the eventual winner.
With so many games to bet on, and traditional FA Cup upsets just around the corner, this is a great tournament to find good odds on underdogs.

How to bet on the FA Cup
FA Cup betting is just as simple as placing a football bet on any other tournament.
First, make sure you’ve signed up to BetUK, or if you haven’t, you can open an account online.
Charge your account, and then head back to this FA Cup betting odds page, where you’ll find all the latest odds.
Select the game you want to bet on, find your preferred odds and enter your stake in the bet slip.
From here, check your risk and potential reward, and hit “Place Bet” to complete the process.
There are two types of FA Cup bet.
One is on events in upcoming games, such as match winner, first goalscorer, HT score, etc.
The other is on tournament outrights, like who will win the FA Cup, who will be the top scorer, and which teams will reach the final.
FA Cup Outright Winner betting
In FA Cup history, the best teams in England haven't always performed well in the FA Cup, but when they fail to live up to expectations, other teams in the top six tend to perform well in their absence.
This is why FA Cup odds are heavily favoured toward the top six with a few teams outside the top six looking favoured for potential success.
Arsenal and Manchester United have a fantastic history in the competition in recent years, with Manchester City joining them.
However, as the most successful club in the competition, Arsenal tend to have a lot of bets for them to succeed.
The best odds you'll find come in the form of outsiders teams who aren't in the extra preliminary rounds or any qualifying rounds.
FA Cup Odds: Qualification
One of the areas that makes the FA Cup betting a standout favourite against the likes of the Premier League and the EFL Cup is the qualification rounds.
these rounds won't have a say on outright winner betting but what it will do is give smaller teams the chance to showcase their skills on a larger platform.
Of course, the best odds are likely to be in the favour of the bigger team but with outsiders getting beyond the qualification rounds, games in the early rounds of the competition provide something we don't get in most other competitions.
Best FA Cup bets
The magic of the FA Cup is that anyone can beat anyone. That means upsets are aplenty – and this is good news for football betting fans.
When it comes to FA Cup bets there are some smart moves you can make to improve your chances of winning, including:
Do your research – The big thing about the FA Cup is that form counts for everything. A team flying in League One has a very good shot at beating a flailing Premier League team, or a top-flight side that is also labouring in Europe. So, do your research and focus on the teams that are doing well in their division. These are where the upsets lay.
Third round accas – The FA Cup third round is perfect for accumulator bets. BetUK offers FA Cup accas across every round, but the third round is where the top-flight clubs enter the field.
