The Betting Corner

For some, Valentine's weekend is all about romance. For others, the only romance they want is the romance of the Cup.

That's right, the FA Cup is back, and football fans across the country will be hoping for more giant killing upsets from some excellent lower-division sides taking on mighty Premier League teams. Bookiesmash has got it covered.

We've taken a look at the key matches being played this weekend and found some great-value bets for you. Middlesborough, the slayers of Manchester City in the last round, are up against Arsenal this time around.

It doesn't get any easier for Aitor Karanka's Championship (second tier) leaders, but Arsenal will be fearing a cup upset. Arsene Wenger will need his best team at the Emirates on Sunday, and we've got the news and analysis you need.

Elsewhere, there's a potential cracker of a game between one Premier League side which has defied low expectations in West Ham, and another that needs to give its fans a boost, West Bromwich Albion.

West Ham don't have to worry about relegation and will travel to The Hawthorns with a high-quality side - but can new West Brom manager Tony Pulis work his magic in another cup tie? Again, we've got the form guide, analysis and your best bets from this storming fixture.
