I don't believe we have a dedicated Carabao Cup thread in the gd board, so i'll share a couple of winners from last night's matches. Well, not the usual 1000x accas that everyone is accustomed to see here from Steve, but still decent imo:
4.xx ; another
4.xx ;
7.xx ; and a solid live bet at the half
3.xx (1.45 for Leeds and Wolves was an absolute steal).
Some may consider Accrington's elimination and Cardiff not being able to score at least one goal against Brighton to be semi-surprises, but the 1/32 round has thus far been devoid of major upsets. Palace failed to score for third match in a row, and their next three opponents in PL are West Ham, Tottenham, and Liverpool... a difficult first month of the season for Patrick Vieira's men, for sure.
Speaking of difficult starts, what about Arsenal...it will be interesting to see who Arteta fields against West Brom (current leaders in Championship). Will he play any of his top players or rest them for the weekend match against Manchester City? Btw, City have won their last 8 meetings with Arsenal in PL...
The biggest news I feel like his Palace, they are really not doing so great at all, it is not going to be really that interesting to see them play with those names when they are already having such a big trouble with what they are facing right now. They managed to win against Watford with 3 goals just recently, and now they are struggling, I have no idea why they are having this kind of trouble right now, but I know that they are not going to be happy with the upcoming matches as well.
This gives me an idea, I am planning on betting "both sides to score" on their next games, this means that if they didn't score for the past 3 games, they "may" end up scoring one against the other 3, because 6 games without scoring sounds way too harsh and may not happen. Which is why I am not sure if they will win or not, but I am pretty sure they will eventually score.
