Matchweek 24 is an FA Cup special – here are our predictions…

Chelsea v Aston Villa

One of two appealing all-Premier League Friday night match-ups and one that is dividing Score Predictor users at present.

A 2-1 home win is the most-popular prediction, followed by a 2-1 away win, followed by a 2-2 draw.

Unai Emery’s men have unquestionably been the better side this season – they’re currently level on points with Arsenal and Manchester City in the league – but the Blues have been in good form of late.

In fact, Mauricio Pochettino’s side have won five of their last six games in all competitions.

Villa won the last two meetings between these teams but they have massively under-performed in the FA Cup in recent years.

The combination of home advantage and form edges it for Chelsea in our opinion.

Our Prediction: 2-1 to Chelsea

Not fond of Spurs away…[/caption]

Tottenham v Manchester City

A mouthwatering clash that should offer entertainment and goals in abundance.

This is Pep Guardiola’s ultimate bogey fixture as he’s seen his side lose all five games at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium.

Spurs’ brand of enterprising, attacking football has the potential to carve through the treble-winners’ defence – City have found clean sheets curiously hard to come by this season.

The visitors will pack a punch and any team that contains Phil Foden, Bernardo Silva, Kevin De Bruyne and possibly Erling Haaland is obviously capable of running riot if everything clicks.

Ange Postecoglou is able to focus purely on the league and FA Cup while Guardiola will also have one eye on the Champions League knockouts at the start of what is a very busy period for the defending champions.

It’s hard to look past the recent history of this fixture.

Our Prediction: 3-2 to Tottenham

Ipswich are flying high in the ChampionshipAlamy

Ipswich v Maidstone

The visitors are the lowest-ranked side left in the competition, currently fourth in the National League South, the sixth-tier of the pyramid.

As for the Tractor Boys, they’re hyper focused on their quest for back-to-back promotions and currently reside second in the Championship having lost just three league games in 2023/24.

Kieran McKenna will probably name a second-string starting XI in hope of easing the workload of his key players but even so, the gulf between these two teams should result in one-way traffic.

Everyone loves an upset but we just can’t see it here.

Our Prediction: 3-0 to Ipswich

Close to a comeback[/caption]

Liverpool v Norwich

The Canaries are one of the better second-tier sides but a trip to Anfield is a daunting prospect.

Worryingly for Norwich, their defence has not held up well on the road – only bottom-of-the-table Rotherham have conceded more league goals away from home in the Championship this term.

Couple this with the Reds’ undefeated home record this season and their average of nearly three goals per game and it could get messy for the visitors on Sunday.

Trent Alexander-Arnold is said to be in contention to return from injury too.

Our Prediction: 4-0 to Liverpool

Surely Man United won’t fall victim to a bottom-half League Two club?Getty

Newport v Manchester United

The Welsh club are set to bank a welcome payday from this fixture and a run of seven games unbeaten will have stirred some hopes of a fairytale result.

Out of the all Premier League giants, many neutrals would say this current iteration of the Red Devils are most likely to come unstuck in an old-fashioned cup upset but cold logic still favours the top-flight outfit.

For all their imperfections, Man United actually boast a relatively solid defensive record in domestic football this season.

The hosts will be seeking magic but the fact remains they’re currently 14th in League Two against a side able to call upon the likes of Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford.

Our Prediction: 2-0 to Manchester United
