LONDON, March 29, 2025 – Betting expert Jones Knows has offered his predictions for Sunday’s FA Cup quarter-finals, highlighting the strong likelihood of Premier League dominance. Analyzing the historical performance of elite teams like Manchester City, Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Chelsea in the FA Cup’s latter stages, Jones Knows points out that these teams have won 26 out of 28 fifth-round or quarter-final matches over the past seven seasons.
This statistical trend heavily favors Aston Villa in their match against Preston North End. Further bolstering this prediction is Preston’s potential absence of up to five first-team players due to suspension, ineligibility, and an ongoing FA investigation. Jones Knows suggests betting on an Aston Villa win with under 3.5 goals as the smart play.
The Bournemouth vs. Manchester City match presents a different scenario. While Jones Knows initially considered backing Bournemouth outright, he expresses concerns about their recent form, citing poor game management and defensive vulnerabilities from set pieces. He also notes the absence of key defenders Dean Huijsen and Milos Kerkez. This uncertainty, coupled with a perceived lack of trust in both teams, leads Jones Knows to predict a draw in this fixture.
