Before you lock in your Aston Villa vs. Crystal Palace picks or FA Cup predictions, you need to see what proven soccer expert Martin Green has to say.

After working in the sports betting industry for several years, Green became a professional sports writer and handicapper and has covered the game worldwide. Last year, he was profitable in multiple areas on his soccer picks, including Euro qualifying (+6.30 units), the EFL Cup (+4.47), the FA Cup (+3.07) and the Champions League (+3.05) among others.

The expert knows both of these opponents feature potent offenses, which has lead to high-scoring bouts over the last few seasons. The Villans have also let their fair share of goals into their net this season, which could result in another goal-heavy game between these rivals.

Green also notes the extra focus the Eagles will have on this match. While Aston Villa sit seventh in the Premier League table with a shot at a top-five spot, Crystal Palace are in 12th place with no chance of securing a Champions League spot for next season. That means they will be laser focused on advancing to the FA Cup final round. 

For Saturday, Green has taken an in-depth look at the Crystal Palace vs. Aston Villa match. He is leaning Over on the goal total and has released a trio of confident best bets, two of which offer a plus-money payout, while offering a full breakdown of this FA Cup match!
