FA Cup Second Round Betting Tips
FA Cup Second Round - As the remaining non-league teams start to dream of trips out to Old Trafford and Anfield there is perhaps no greater prize in store for many amateur players than winning a place in the second round of the FA Cup. There will be at least two non-league teams represented when the Premiership sides enter the draw, but with nine part-time outfits playing over the weekend neutrals will be hoping for many more.The pick of the potential giant-killings sees lowly Salisbury host twice European Champions and twice FA Cup winners Nottingham Forest. Punters will look at this game and eye up the 8/15 available on Forest with VCBet. However, Nick Holmes' Conference South side have ambitions of league football in the not-too-distant future and the 13/2 available is testament not only to the spirit of the FA Cup, but also the behind-the-scenes planning that is underway at the Raymond McEnhill Stadium. This has a very good chance of being the surprise of the round and I certainly recommend the 13/2 with Betfred.If you fancy a novelty FA Cup bet, how about Evens on the corner count going above 11 with Stan James? No matter how the scoreline looks with twenty minutes to go, one thing that is a given in the Cup is intense pressure, more often than not resulting in more corners than you have fingernails!The biggest tie of the round sees Bristol City host Gillingham. The two sides faced each other two weeks ago with the Robins coming from behind to beat the Gills 3-1 at Ashton Gate. That said, Gillingham are possibly the trickiest team in League One to predict and the Cup spirit will only add to this. That said, Ronnie Jepson's Gillingham side is far better than the 9/2 available with BetDirect - if you're looking for value step in here. For a better than outside chance listen to this - the Gills have thrown away 15 points so far this season from winning positions - the half-time/full-time odds on Gillingham/Bristol City is 28/1 withStan James - again far too long and great value. 01 Dec 19:45 Bradford v Millwall 11/10 9/4 9/4 01 Dec 19:45 Stockport v Wycombe 11/8 11/5 17/10 01 Dec 20:00 King's Lynn v Oldham 9/2 5/2 4/7 02 Dec 14:00 Aldershot v Basingstoke 4/7 5/2 9/2 02 Dec 14:00 Hereford v Port Vale 6/4 9/4 6/4 02 Dec 15:00 Barnet v Northampton 15/8 11/5 5/4 02 Dec 15:00 Brighton v Stafford Rangers 1/2 5/2 11/2 02 Dec 15:00 Bristol Rovers v Bournemouth 5/4 9/4 9/5 02 Dec 15:00 Bury v Chester 1/1 9/4 12/5 02 Dec 15:00 Darlington v Swansea 6/4 9/4 6/4 02 Dec 15:00 Macclesfield v Hartlepool 6/4 9/4 6/4 02 Dec 15:00 Mansfield v Doncaster 17/10 11/5 11/8 02 Dec 15:00 Milton Keynes Dons v Blackpool 6/4 9/4 6/4 02 Dec 15:00 Rushden & D'monds v Tamworth 1/1 9/4 12/5 02 Dec 15:00 Scunthorpe v Wrexham 8/15 5/2 5/1 02 Dec 15:00 Swindon v Morecambe 4/7 5/2 9/2 02 Dec 15:00 Torquay v Leyton Orient 6/4 9/4 6/4 02 Dec 15:00 Tranmere v Peterborough 8/11 12/5 10/3 03 Dec 13:00 Bristol City v Gillingham 4/6 5/2 7/2 03 Dec 13:10 Salisbury v Nottm Forest 11/2 5/2 1/2 Odds by: Bet 365
