London rivals Crystal Palace and Watford have suffered a major slump in form since booking their place in the semi-finals of the FA Cup.

Palace have won just one of their previous six matches and opponents Watford go into Sunday’s game after one win in five, while both teams lost in midweek as they rested players.

BetVictor make Palace the favourites to reach the final.

You can get 8-11 on Alan Pardew’s men and Watford are evens.

In the other semi-final, Manchester United have shortened to 4-7 to progress after opponents Everton were thumped 4-0 by Liverpool in the midweek Merseyside derby.

United are also 6-5 favourites with BetVictor to win the FA Cup, with Everton next best at 3s even though manager Roberto Martinez is facing a fight to keep his job at Goodison Park.

Palace are 7-2 to go all the way and Watford are considered the outsiders of the quartet at 9-2.
