Peterborough vs Manchester City prediction and odds: Back City to rack up the goals at London Road

FA Cup favourites Manchester City shouldn't have any trouble seeing off Championship basement boys Peterborough United in Tuesday's fifth-round clash at London Road on Tuesday.

The Premier League leaders are, understandably, red-hot 1/10 favourites to get the job done in 90 minutes, while the Posh are huge 28/1 outsiders to cause the shock of this year's tournament.

Peterborough are in dire trouble in the Championship and new boss Grant McCann's homecoming was ruined by his former club Hull City, who thumped the hosts 3-0 on Saturday, making it five defeats in six matches for the Posh.

Only Barnsley have scored less than Peterborough's 15 home goals this term and it's that home record of just four wins from 16 matches that is really costing Peterborough dear this term.

Man City have already put four past Swindon and Fulham in this season's FA Cup and the goals should flow once again for a City side that got their title challenge back on track with a win at Everton on Saturday night.

Pep Guardiola is bound to make a raft of changes but City's squad is deep and whatever eleven the visitors field, it should more than good enough to outclass this struggling Peterborough outfit.

Peterborough vs Man City prediction

This looks straightforward for City but the odds reflect that.

City to 'win to nil' is 8/13 and that looks a solid acca leg for anyone that wants to combine wagers, but the most appealing single wager on this game is City to score more than three goals, which is an odd-against poke (5/4) with Betfred. That'll do for us.

Recommended bet: Over 3.5 Manchester City goals @ 5/4 with Betfred
