Everton 2-0 Chelsea: 6 Things We Learned

3. Everton Are Now The Favourites To Win The FA Cup

No doubt about it, this is Everton€™s best chance to lift a major trophy for as long as most of their supporters can remember. The giants have fallen, and the Toffees have assembled their strongest squad since the glory days of the 1980s. With Arsenal crashing to a shock 2-1 home defeat to Watford and Manchester United being taken to a replay by West Ham in the other quarter-final tie, even some of the bookmakers are backing Martinez€™s men as the favourites to get their hands on the cup. BoyleSports has pegged them as 9/4 on to go the distance. Everton will fancy their chances of reaching the final were they to draw Watford or Crystal Palace in the semis, but the winner of the replay between United and West Ham will prove a tough test. Just look when happened the last time they entertained the Hammers.
