Topic: ⚽ EFL Carabao Cup 2024/25 Season - page 6. (Read 1148 times)

Liverpool have a good defense this season. In 5 matches they have only conceded 1 goal. Liverpool plays very dominantly, and it will take hard work from West Ham players to be able to score. but there will still be opportunities, in the last few meetings West Ham has always managed to score when facing Liverpool even though they have to lose.
But that proves your betting opportunities for the match are quite good. instead of betting 1x2 for Liverpool with Odds 1.33, betting BTTS has better Odds. hopefully, you are lucky.

Usually in early games we are having reserve players or those are not used in main stream teams because coaches want to stay with their rotation policy or afraid of injuries which can bring problems for them just because of this sometime we are having competitive games as we have in last few matches Leicester City not able to score in 90 minutes then they won on penalties with Manchester City vs Watford was also good game even we have huge difference of quality between these clubs.

Aston Villa and Chelsea done good job and have easy wins with now just three games remaining in this round then we will have round of 16 which could be more entertaining as now we are having mostly big teams in this event.

Currently, it's not easy to predict about winner because in next few rounds we can watch some big eliminations as well which are surely always on cards and things can take any change which are also part of soccer game.

It turns out I saw the schedule wrong, because the team that competed with Watford was Manchester City, and City won as predicted, although not by a big score, but this victory proves that City are the best for this cup, and they are one of the clubs with quite a lot of titles in this cup.

And Chelsea managed to win and Nkunku scored a hat-trick this could be a good season for him after struggling with injuries in his first season in this club.

I don't know why these teams don't know how to cease good opportunities and play well as an underdog without allowing these big club to always beat them year after year. Imagine that Chelsea rested a lot of her key players and still played them as though they came in with a complete squared. If Chelsea wanted, the match would have ended with at least 8 goals.

A massive hatrick to nkunku. I can't tell if Jackson would have scored more or same number of goals if he played the role nkunku played but it's good that the Chelsea team have options to work with even when Jackson might not be available for certain games. The way they play against teams they're weaker than them is alway amazing and if they can use that same energy against stronger opposition, it will help them gain better ground  in the premier league and Maybe ending top 4 could be something that's not too ambitious to expect.

Nice prediction. The odds for betting on over 3 goals are not tempting. This is because Arsenal is still in its prime.

I'd rather take asian handicap home -2/-2.5 for Arsenal. This is because they're gonna play a home game against a very weak team such as Bolton. Though they're gonna play without their main goalie, Raya. This is because he got a minor knock, and their coach, Arteta, is not keen in taking the risk to play him.

Anyways, Bolton is 14th in the League 1, and it must be very easy for them to win.




As for Liverpool vs Westham game, and BTTS's odds very tempting. But i think Liverpool is gonna win it. Though, i recently hear that if Slot decides to rest Salah, and Alison. He puts Chiesa & Endo in.

That's not good enough, but i think Carabao cup is not that important for them, they win it last season.

An impressive performance from Chelsea 2nd squad although it was an easy opponent but i am impressed with the way they played. Every player played well even Mudryk played well and even assisted Neto’s goal early in the second half, maybe Barrow is not a worthy opponent to test the strength of these players because they barely got an attempt on target. Nkunku got his hattrick later in the match after a disastrous mistake from Barrow’s goalkeeper to make it 5 for Chelsea. I believe Enzo Maresca will be impressed with the performance of his players.

Manchester City ended the match 2-1 they managed to win and gave a brilliant performance but Watford didn’t make it easy for them they also performed brilliantly.

I like your predictions about those two matches, Liverpool and Westham are likely to score a goal both and Arsenal should be able to score above 3 goals against Bolton and i expect Bolton should be able to score at least a goal but then Arsenal have been more defensive minded recently and it has affected their goal ratio recently.

Today's EFL matches:

Arsenal vs Bolton (over 3)
Liverpool vs West Ham (BTTS)

On paper this match should not provide any surprises because Arsenal and Liverpool are currently in very good form. So I took a bet on over 3 with odds @1.5 and BTTS (Yes) with odds @1.71.
Total parlay odds @2.57
Hopefully there are no surprises in today's match.

No doubt that Chelsea have started playing good football recently, but FC Barrow in not in anywhere close to Chelsea in terms of ranking. Chelsea is far superior than FC Barrow and if Barrow had scored a single goal against Chelsea, I would have considered them the better side in that encounter. Chelsea played very well and I expected that they would have score up to 10 goals or more when comparing the team they played against. As for Nkunku he is a very good player and there is no doubt about that. If he continue to be fit he is going to be scoring more important goals for Chelsea. Chelsea should reserve some of these goals for a premier league match. It's not about winning FC Barrow with 5 goals and struggle to score a single goal in a premier league match, just like Manchester United did last weekend, and cut people's bet.

I lost my bet because of Leicester's result. My prediction for the other match was right, but I lost because of Leicester's result. I don't think Leicester will have much difficulty in getting a win in normal time against Walsall. They dominated the match but didn't create many chances. A little regret because of the result, but anyway betting is still betting, some will win, some will lose. Now I lost, so came back to bet on another match.

We are all the big boys were going to advance to the next round, it was an easy pick just that Leicester only advanced through penalties. All round yesterday the matches were exciting to watch, though I could only watch 2 which was the Chelsea match and Aston Villa. After the matches ending watching the highlight of Manchester city and Leicester own proves it was a good match.

Chelsea trashed bansley yesterday 5-0, from the kick off Chelsea took absolutely control of the match scoring before 15 min and making look easy, the first half ended 3-0 with Christopher Nkuku scoring a brace in the first half and felix scoring from a free kick which was later considered and own goal. Chelsea finished the match 5-0 Nkuku completed his first Chelsea Hattrick and Pedro neto scored his first Chelsea goal. The boys had fun yesterday and I can say for sure that Enzo maresca is really building something in this Chelsea team. Well they have a big test this weekend when they face the unbeaten Brighton.

Manchester city also beat Watford 2-1, they played comfortably at home too after the 2-2 draw against arsenal, this win was needed to bring back the winning at Etihad stadium. Matheus Nunes scored his first ever Manchester city goal and doku also being on the score sheet too.

Aston Villa had a difficult first half but like always they are the best team in the second half so far this season, they scored twice in the second half and of course Duan Durant was on the score sheet in the second half again, wycombe scored a late goal which only allow the match to end 2-1 with Villa advancing to the next round.

Leicester face walsall and the match ended in a goalsess draw and both team went straight to penalties and Leicester of course scoring all first 3 penalties and walsall loosing all first 3 penalties.

The results of those matches is really to according my prediction that Aston Villa, Chelsea and Manchester City can able to beat their opponents without any problem but Leicester have to hard struggling to beat Walsall even they have to playing until penalty shootout but luckily Leicester can win this match but for bets option i am sure those who bets on Leicester 1x2 obviously will lost their money this because Leicester only able to playing draw at the normal time

Chelsea is the most impressive because they can beat FC Barrow with huge scores 5-0 and for next matches here is the schedules below but compared to other teams below Liverpool has hard opponent this because they have to facing Premier league team early West Ham

Arsenal vs Bolton
Liverpool vs WestHam
Newcastle vs AFC Wimbledon

Although Liverpool facing Premier league team i think they still too strong for West Ham and i am confident they can be the winner of that match and for other teams such as Arsenal and Newcastle because they too facing the teams from lower division then beating their opponents shouldn't be big problem for them

OMG! Chelsea's game yesterday was as easy as 1,2,3,4,5 goals. Like they were the only ones who came to the party. For the first time in a while now the Blues are playing football that is entertaining and resembling the type that we saw in the days of Drogba and the rest.
 Nkunku showed that he can be very useful when he produced the first goal in as a little as 8' and the goal rain began pouring from then on.
Their performance is top notch but I'm hoping this won't be just it because if they continue like this, not only will their confidence strengthen to be able to beat bigger clubs, they will also be at the top ranks.

Haha you are right, here Chelsea can always perform very well and today they got big win by scoring 5 goal without reply against Barrow which is League Two team, this win I think is quite reasonable for Chelsea to get and indeed they should have gotten this win.
But in the future I not sure Chelsea will be able to perform well because they will meet opponents who may be much stronger, but no one knows what it will be like, clearly with Chelsea inconsistent performance I skeptical of them.

There are still few matches left for this third round and Arsenal will play against Bolton and I very sure Arsenal can win easily and even get big win for this match.
In another match we will also see Liverpool meet West Ham and this is one of the big matches here, West Ham is sure to have difficulty in being able to match or beat Liverpool later.

If giving more attention. Manchester City will surely that's not a problem Aston Villa and Chelsea will take it more seriously that is why I am very certain they will win the game. Leicester game can be bet on Leicester to win either half or win or draw. But on the brighter side, I can be hopeful for Leicester to win the game.

I don't know if it is just me or if few others know that the competition in the next round will consist more of the Premier League teams. If care is not taken any EPL team would win the Carabao Cup.

Chelsea is coming back to it form as of years back again. I really like the way they are playing this year but they have not met any strong team to see if really they are in good shape. I was like Chelsea won Barrow 5-0. This is new record broken by Chelsea for a very long time. Just like Barrow was just moving around the field and Chelsea was busy scoring. Both ball control and shots, Chelsea was the highest.
This is great. Chelsea used the opportunity very well and it is good like this.

Nkunku has scored 2 goals for Chelsea now. They have conceded 2 goals in just 20 minutes and from Chelsea's performance against Barrow at Stamford Bridge, two goals is not enough. Betting on the over would be a good bet.
This game is an opportunity for Mudryk to gain Enzo Maresca's trust.

In another game, Manchester City have only managed to score 1 goal against Watford. Doku was the scorer.
This game is also a good bet for the over.

All of them should able to win including Leicester City.

Walsall isn't playing in League One instead they playing in League Two, it's fourth division while Leicester City in first division. Even Leicester City's performance is terrible in Premier League, but they were strong in Championship which mean the gap between each division is really far.

The only way they can draw if Leicester City lost many important players, but all of them are available.

I'm sure all the teams from the Premier League will win in normal times, including Leicester. Even though they haven't shown good signs in the Premier League, at least they have only played against team from the 4th division. Is it based on that that you don't believe Leicester can win in normal time? If you're not sure, let's make a side bet .

 One fixture I'm anxious to see is the Chelsea vs Barrow game because Enzo's boys have been on fire for a while now and judging by their performance, this game should be an easy one except this Barrow club can put up a fight because we know that Chelsea can mess when you least expect them to.

---

In another fixture where we have City hosting Watford, I have the feeling that they will make a barbecue of Watford being that they were held to a draw in their home by the Gunners so they will want to turn all their anger and frustration on the visitors. Some of their key players like KDB and Rodrigo may be absent but I don't think that will be an issue for Pep Guardiola.

3rd round will be started today and i have seen that some of matches will be available today and mostly some of Premier league teams will fight against the teams from lower division and on the paper thiese matches shouldn't be big problem for them and here is the current schedules for 3rd round today

Walsall vs Leicester
Manchester City vs Watford
Chelsea vs FC Barrow
Wycombe vs Aston Villa

For the teams such as Manchester City, Aston Villa and Chelsea i am very confident these teams will be able to overcomes their opponents but for Leicester although their opponent is only the team from League One division but i highly doubt they can win because their performance is really unstable in Premier league even i was thinking possibility this match will be ended draw at the normal time
