Mansfield Town v Middlesbrough FA Cup 4th Round Betting Odds
The Mansfield Town v Middlesbrough FA Cup 4th Round betting odds have Middlesbrough as the odds on 2/5 favourites to beat League 2 strugglers Mansfield Town, who are 6/1 to cause a major FA Cup upset with 77 places currently separating these two sides in the football league. History is on the side of Mansfield, who won the only previous Cup meeting between these two teams 2-0 back in 1967 and the Stags upsetting the odds once again on Saturday would surely increase the pressure on Middlesbrough boss Gareth Southgate.

Middlesbrough come in to this fixture looking for their first win of 2008 and will be confident of securing a place in the last sixteen of the FA Cup against a Mansfield side who are currently 23rd in League 2 and the main priority of Stags boss Bill Dearden will surely be for his side to beat the drop in to the Football conference. However, to coin a cliché ‘anything can happen in the cup’ and Mansfield will no doubt put their relegation woes to one side for 90 minutes, and at odds of 6/1 for the win or 11/4 for the draw, plenty of people will be having a bet on their being an upset in this game.
Middlesbrough are likely to be one of the ‘bankers’ of the weekend and will be a popular choice on many peoples football accumulator bets. Boro have won only three games away all season, with two of those victories being 1-0. Another 1-0 Boro win in this Saturday’s live BBC 1 lunchtime kick-off, is priced at 6/1 with Ladbrokes. Middlesbrough’s Tuncay Sanli has scored the first goal in three of Boro’s last four away games and the Turkish striker is 9/2 to open the scoring at Field Mill.
