Pulis confident of reaching Wembley
Sunday, March 7th, 2010
Stoke manager Tony Pulis is confident his side can reach the FA Cup semi-finals by defying the odds and beating Chelsea (1/4 to beat Stoke in the 90 minute betting) at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
The Potters head west London as the 9/1 underdogs to overcome the Blues in the cup despite having already beaten Manchester City and Arsenal on their way to the quarter-finals.
Pulis’ side (18/1 to win the FA Cup) have already upset the odds this season by dumping City out of the cup, securing a draw at Eastlands before winning 3-1 in extra time in the replay.
A similar result on Sunday would more than likely please the Stoke supporters as they look to inflict a second straight home defeat on Chelsea after their defeat to Man City last Saturday.
Pulis is already looking forward to another high-profile scalp as he believes the title of underdogs will suit his team.
“We go there as rank underdogs and no-one will give us a chance. It is going to be a tough game and we’ve played some tough games over the last couple of weeks,” said Pulis.
“But we’ll go down there, try to enjoy it and do the best we can because it is 38 years since this club was in an FA Cup quarter-final.
