FA Cup Betting - Paulton Rovers vs Norwich Preview

FA Cup - Paulton Rovers v Norwich

***Paulton Rovers Vs Norwich City***

There is a big 'David' Vs 'Goliath' boxing match tonight but at lunchtime today ITV will also be showing a 'David' Vs 'Goliath' when Tiny little Paulton Rovers entertain Norwich City in the FA Cup 1st round.

Paulton Rovers are the lowest ranked side in the draw and turn out each week in the Zamaretto League Div 1 south and west in front of crowds that total normally just a few hundred. Paulton are in effect 5 divisions below there ex top flight opponents and there are a few 'firsts' for them ahead of this match, Its there 1st ever FA Cup 1st round match, 1st ever game Vs League opponents and 1st time they have ever been live on TV. Whatever happens it promises to be a great occasion for this little club. Team news is obviously sketchy about a side we know very little about but news suggests that Captain Dan Cleverley is struggling to be fit to play. Paulton are a side made up of part timers, Mechanics, Electricians etc, Although many do have experience with some of the bigger clubs around the area, Bristol City/Rovers and Bath City have employed Paulton Rovers players in there youth days.

All the pressure should be Norwich here and a giant killing could be talked about here if Norwich were a struggling League 1 club, However, Norwich come into this match on the back of 5 league wins from 6 games and are pretty freescoring at the moment, Norwich are taking this game seriously and will want to finish the job off at the 1st attempt, The Boss has indicated he will be fielding his strongest available side and with only right back a trouble area Norwich should be far to strong to the part timers.

It will be a bit of a culture shock for Norwich here and if they were to concede an early goal it could become a tricky afternoon, I thought dont think they will struggle here too much and if they settle quickly themselves and get an early goal could and should win at a canter, Im a big fan of big number and as im going to be sitting back and watching this game will have a few correct score bets and a saver bet on Norwich too.

Its a few decent priced correct scores here but as long as Norwich win by at least a 2 goal margain it returns a small profit.
