Tips

Chelsea Win • 2.06

The last matches in this tournament were played as follows: Tottenham won 3: 0, but that was a technical defeat.

Chelsea confidently dealt with the rival with a score of 6: 0. In general, the teams are approximately equal in ***** and level.

But Chelsea is a more balanced team, they know how to get together at the right time, so I prefer the visiting team.

I bet on the win, because the last matches inspire uncertainty (judging by Tottenham's play)

Everton Win • 1.85

Everton’s last match against Aston villa was mind blowing with home team scoring 3 against Everton ,,they have to win this match if they want to get in the top list, don’t forget also they have man united, west ham, man city, Liverpool coming up so they need to win this and Norwich also, thats the only way i see it in order for them to do something better this season. So put them on the list for the next two matches before meeting up with Cristiano Ronaldo,, i mean Manchester hahah!

Both Teams To Score - Yes • 1.82

That was the second Brentford game on the spin where both teams registered, while both teams also found the net in four of the last six meetings between the Bees and Fulham.
🔥
With the head-to-head history of this fixture considered, we like the look of the both teams to score market again for Thursday’s tussle, though we’re backing Brentford to continue their streak of wins against Premier League sides in our correct score prediction, which tips the hosts to win 2-1. 😱

Both Teams To Score - Yes • 1.78

😎The Potters have yet to concede an away goal this season, however, having conceded a sizeable 33 attempts in the three matches they have contested on the road so far, they have had luck on their side.😱

Villa have the tools and momentum to finish the opportunities they create this week, and having kept clean sheets in each of their last three outings, a combination of factors makes a 2-0 home win a correct score prediction worth backing.

Liverpool Win • 2.07

💣Fresh from their Premier League encounter at Anfield, Liverpool and Arsenal meet once again at the feted venue for an EFL Cup clash. The fourth round of the competition promises a quarter-final spot to the winners of each tie. The aforementioned league duel between Liverpool and Arsenal saw the home side come from behind to claim a 3-1 win. Although the opener that they conceded was, to use a term Roy Keane likes, 'sloppy', Liverpool were ******* thereafter and could have won by a wider margin. 😱

Brentford Win • 2.44

💣Brentford face their Championship play-off final conquerors Fulham on Thursday evening, in a Carabao Cup fourth round tie that the Bees will feel they can exact some revenge in.
😱
The Cottagers secured a spot in the Premier League this season at Brentford’s expense, though Fulham have had to endure a miserable start to life in the top flight, losing each of their first three matches while conceding a whopping 10 goals along the way.

Both Teams To Score - Yes • 1.77

The guests have won 5 English League Cup trophies. The last time the team won the Cup was in 2017. In the last draw, Manchester United reached the semifinals, where they lost to fellow countrymen from Manchester City.

Brighton has scored at least 1 goal in 5 of 6 previous head-to-head confrontations in the Premier League.

Teams have scored over 2 goals in their last 5 head-to-head meetings.

🤫 I bet both will score!

Draw • 3.84

Liverpool and Arsenal face each other for the second time in just four days as they go head to head in the EFL Cup last 16. The Reds are seen as No. 1 favourites to win the Premier League, but Jurgen Klopp is likely to use the EFL Cup to rest first-team regulars. Anyhow, the hosts are likely to find the net in Thursday’s showdown regardless of which players will be deployed in the starting XI.

The Gunners, on the other hand, did well to beat Leicester City on the road in their EFL Cup opener, and given their attacking potential, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Whenever Liverpool and Arsenal face each other in a competitive match, a football festival is guaranteed. In their last meeting in the EFL Cup the two teams played out a thrilling 5-5 draw after 90 minutes, with the Reds winning the match on penalties.

Brentford Win • 2.44

Hello! Hi! Good day! I am very happy to be here and to give some tips for this game! According to statistics:

👉 Both teams scored in four of the last six meetings between Brentford and Fulham;

👉 Brentford knocked out Premier League opponents in each of the last two rounds of the Carabao Cup.
Fulham lost on each of their last two trips to play Brentford;

👉 Brentford targeting Premier League scalp.

I think that Brentford will winn 2:0.

Both Teams To Score - Yes • 1.55

💣 Liverpool got through the third round of the EFL Cup with a 7-2 win at Lincoln. It means that they have scored 15 goals in their five competitive games this season. 😎
Arsenal made it through a considerably tougher test in the third round, winning 2-0 at Leicester. If this game is anything like last season's EFL Cup game between these sides, we're in for a treat. On that occasion, Liverpool progressed on penalties following a 5-5 draw.😱

Aston Villa Win • 1.75

A spot in the EFL Cup quarter-finals will be at stake when Aston Villa and Stoke City face each other at Villa Park.

The Villans have defeated the likes of Burton (3-1) and Bristol City (3-0) on their way to the last 16, but they do not want to stop now. Even though the likes of Wesley, Heaton, and Engels are sidelined with injury, we are tempted to put our money on the hosts, who have been in a fine form at the start of the season.

The Potters, on the other hand, aim to build on the Championship win over Preston. Stoke City set up a meeting with Villa by beating Wolverhampton and Gillingham, but we do not believe that they are capable of claiming yet another major scalp.

Joe Allen and Ryan Shawcross remain in the recovery room for the visitors

Hull City or Draw • 3.18

Hull City knocked out new Premier League side Leeds United in the previous round of the EFL Cup and they could claim another top-flight scalp in the form of West Ham.

The Tigers beat Leeds on penalties at Elland Road but won the shot count 18-8 in the match itself and have made a strong start to life in England’s third tier, winning to nil against Gillingham and Crewe.

West Ham could be feeling a touch deflated after their last-gasp defeat to Arsenal last time out, which meant they have lost their opening two Premier League games this campaign.

Even with fans in the stands, the Hammers struggled on home soil in the league last term, losing nine of their 19 league fixtures at the London Stadium in 2019-20.

Hull are worth backing in the double chance market

Manchester City Win • 1.42

🔥🔥🔥🔥With the rigours of a tightly-packed schedule already affecting performances and results, both Sean Dyche and Pep Guardiola will be tempted to make sweeping changes to their teams for Burnley’s Carabao Cup clash with Man City on Wednesday evening.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The Clarets, who were beaten 1-0 at home to Southampton in the league on Saturday, drafted in a number of young players for their victory at Millwall in the previous round, and a similar mish-mash of senior and fringe squad members could be fielded this week against City. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Over 2.5 Goals • 1.64

The 1/8 final match of the English League Cup between Liverpool and Arsenal will take place on 1 October.

Liverpool are the most titled team in the English League Cup with 8 trophies. the last time Liverpudlians won the Cup was in 2012. There was also a final in 2016, but then the team lost on penalties to Manchester City.

On account of the "Gunners" only 2 trophies of the English League Cup, the last time the team won this tournament back in 1993.

I think we will have an open and exciting match with a lot of goals. I bet on total over 2.5.

Both Teams To Score - Yes • 1.59

Both teams have scored in the last 7 head-ons in the Premier League, the Super Cup and the English League Cup.

In 8 previous head-to-head confrontations in the Premier League and the English League Cup, Liverpool have scored more than 1 goal at home.

There have been no draws in 8 of the last 9 head-ons in the Premier League, Super Cup and English League Cup in the first half.

I bet both teams will score!

Everton Win • 1.76

🔥 Open cup tie on the cards on Merseyside
Everton maintained their flying start to the 2020/21 season on Saturday with a hard-fought 2-1 win at Crystal Palace – a result that provided their fifth victory on the spin in all competitions since the campaign kicked off. 😎

Powered by a trio of new midfield signings, the Toffees have hit their stride early, and Everton’s games have been hugely entertaining affairs, with an average of 4.2 goals hitting the net every 90 minutes overall.🔥

Tottenham Hotspur Win • 3.62

👉 Tottenham have won four of their previous five Premier League games.
👉 Spurs have not conceded at home in only two out of ten last league matches.
👉 Chelsea have lost four of their last five Premier League games.
👉 In all eight away games Chelsea have won over 2.5 total in this championship.

👉 In head-to-head matches, Chelsea and Tottenham, as a rule, win at home, occasionally beating an opponent away.

Tottenham plays at home, I bet on them.

Sunderland Win • 1.9

Sunderland lost just twice in 22 home fixtures last season in all competitions.
Hull City were beaten in 18 of their last 22 competitive matches.

Sunderland averaged 2.125 goals per 90 minutes in their final eight home games last term.
Sunderland targeting cup scalp

After a heart-breaking end to the 2019/20 season where they missed out on a possible League One playoff spot following the cancellation of the competition, Sunderland begin a fresh domestic campaign with a Carabao Cup tie at home to Hull City this weekend.

Manchester United Win • 1.83

The Red Devils rested many of their stars in last week’s win over Luton and the likes of Paul Pogba, Bruno Fernandes, Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood could be benched again here.

It was their ruthless efficiency in front of goal that won it for Man Utd at the weekend, and without them they could struggle. Brighton have lost just two of their last eight in all competitions, and backing the home side to get a result looks great value.

But manchester united is manchester united. guys will get together

Both Teams To Score - Yes • 2.11

Everton are back in cup action on Wednesday night, which means the second-string side which beat Salford last week are set to return. The Toffees will be bringing a weakened side to Highbury, which gives Fleetwood a chance in this tie.

The hosts have had a solid season so far, winning four of their first five games in all competitions. However, Joey Barton’s side have seen both teams score in each of those five games, which suggests that this third round tie could be quite open.

Five of Everton’s last seven away ties in this competition have seen both teams score, so I'm backing goals in this clash. Fleetwood’s last four home ties in this competition have seen both teams score, including both of their previous matches this season.

Both Teams To Score And Total Over 2.5 - Yes • 2.11

Man City’s cup date with Bournemouth on Thursday follows hot on the heels of the Citizens’ fine 3-1 win at Wolves on Monday evening, and with little time to rest between games, Pep Guardiola has already admitted that his XI will be flooded with kids and fringe players against the Cherries.

City, who won the Carabao Cup in each of the last three seasons, could hand minutes to players like Tommy Doyle and Adrian Bernabe this week, while highly-regarded 17-year-old striker Liam Delap – son of former Stoke defender Rory – looks set for a senior debut.

Jason Tindall will feel like his Cherries team have an opening to cause an upset at the Etihad this week against a makeshift City team, and as a result, Bournemouth might play with a little more adventure than they might have against a full-strength Citizens XI.

That in turn, promises to make Thursday’s third round cup tussle an exciting contest. An average of 4.2 goals per 90 minutes hit the net in the last five meetings between these clubs at the Etihad Stadium, and I expect their latest clash this week to be similarly thrilling, albeit for different reasons.

Both Teams To Score And Total Over 2.5 - Yes • 2.65

Lincoln City vs Liverpool predictions for Thursday’s Carabao Cup clash at the LNER Stadium. Lincoln host Premier League champions Liverpool in the third round of the League Cup.

1. Lincoln City are averaging 2.4 goals per 90 minutes this season.
2. Liverpool’s Carabao Cup matches averaged 5.66 goals per game last term.
3. Liverpool are expected to name an XI made up of fringe and young players at Lincoln.

Handicap Bournemouth (2) • 1.9

Usually Cup matches are unpredictable... And here will be such situation.

Centre-back Eric Garcia, midfielder Bernardo Silva and left-back Oleksandr Zinchenko are all missing through injury. Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has already said that he is likely to make wholesale changes for this clash.

Ilkay Gundogan tested positive for COVID-19 so is unavailable while centre-back Aymeric Laporte and winger Riyad Mahrez are just returning from injury so are unlikely to be risked. Forward Sergio Aguero is also missing through injury.

Chelsea Win • 1.131

Chelsea may have been given a rude awakening by Liverpool on Sunday but the Blues should have a slightly easier time of things against Barnsley. Frank Lampard is expected to utilise his deep squad in this clash, offering chances to some players who need to make an impression.

The Blues face a Barnsley side who have lost both of their Championship games so far, but the Tykes have won their two Carabao Cup ties against Championship opposition. The visitors play an aggressive pressing game and could pressure a Chelsea defence which will feature four players who didn’t make it into the team for their loss to Liverpool.

With Barkely supporting an attacking trio including Tammy Abraham and Callum Hudson-Odoi, I expect the Blues to win this one. However, their defensive record in this competition offers a little hope for the Tykes. As a result I'm going with Chelsea to win and both teams to score.

Handicap Liverpool (-2) • 1.6

Reds boss Jürgen Klopp is likely to make **** changes.
Liverpool striker Takumi Minamino has scored 2 goals in his last 3 matches.

Lincoln City finished 16th in League One last season, 10 points above the relegation zone. They are undefeated in five matches this season.

Michael Appleton’s side won 2-1 at Crewe in the League Cup followed by a penalty shootout victory against Scunthorpe United in the EFL Trophy.

Leicester City Win • 2.93

Leicester City and Arsenal will face off in the third round of the English Football League Cup. Arsenal started the season with a 3-0 win over Fulham, followed by a less convincing home win over West Ham. Leicester also kicked off their season by beating West Bromwich. This was followed by a 4-2 home win over Burnley. Leicester is unbeaten in their last three games against Arsenal.

Given the number of matches played by both teams and the density of games, there is a chance that the teams will not field their star players.
I guess Leicester will win.

Manchester United Win And Total Over 2.5 Yes • 1.8

After a surprise 3-1 defeat to Crystal Palace at Old Trafford, Manchester United will have to win back today. The Red Devils want to please the fans.

On the other hand, the Hatters are hoping for a fifth consecutive victory in all competitions. The hosts are confident ahead of Manchester United's visit, but given the importance of the match for the Red Devils, I think they will win confidently.

Nemanja Matic is likely to miss the game due to poor physical fitness.

Tottenham Hotspur Win • 1.15

Tottenham have an incredibly busy week: three games over six days, all in different competitions. Tottenham started the season with a home defeat and then nearly disaster in the second qualifying round of the Europa League.

The spurs are likely to represent non-core team members. They have a strong line-up now and want to have an edge over their opponents. The hosts are currently leading the North Macedonian league with a one point lead. They haven't lost in their last eight matches, so it will not be easy for Mourinho's team.
The North Macedonian side kicked out early from the Champions League and Europa League last season.

West Ham United Win • 1.333

West Ham United hosts Hull City. The Hammers have kicked off their new Premier League campaign with two defeats to Arsenal and Newcastle and are no doubt looking to regain much-needed confidence. The Hammers are likely to take Tuesday's football game very seriously and we are confident that they will shoot as hard as they can.

The man to watch in west ham is Mikhail Antonio, who scored a goal in the London derby over the weekend. Hull City, on the other hand, are looking to build on a tough 1-0 win over Crewe.

When the two teams met in the Premier League three years ago, Hull beat West Ham, which means the hosts are hungry for revenge.

Both Teams To Score - Yes • 1.833

It was another dreadful start to the season for West Ham on Saturday as they lost 2-0 at home to Newcastle, but they have a great chance to claim their first win of the season when they take on League One outfit Charlton.The Addicks got their league campaign off to a winning start as the newly relegated side beat Crewe, and they have now scored six goals in their three competitive matches this term. They may be the underdogs, but they can certainly cause this Hammers defence some problems on Tuesday. West Ham have all the quality to win this one and are expected to do just that, but at the back the defeat to Newcastle raised some serious concerns. They have now conceded in 19 of their last 20 matches in all competitions and they haven’t kept a clean sheet at the London Stadium since New Year’s Day.This points towards both teams finding the back of the net, and that’s what we’re opting for here
