    Liverpool – Manchester City

    I dont see any reason why City will favorite in this one. Liverpool has scored at least 3 goals in the last 6 consecutive games. Salah on fire, Jota too, lonly Mane is out of focus if you ask me. Baci in defense Matip and Van Dajk and only But Milner will be replacement. City did not impress me at all. De Bryjne far from his standard form, without reall attacker in team they failed to score against Southampton and PSG as well. Visitors will be without Gundogan, Zinchenko and Mendy. That should be cover easy but for me Liverpool like better team at moment. And value is for sure on home win! I will take here safer option Liverpool + 0 AH!

    Pick: Liverpool +0 AH

    Odds: 2.11 at Pinnacle

    Cambridge – Swindon

    EFL Cup

    A random cup really and one where the value is almost never on the favourites. Clubs often still rotate in this competition for some reason, eventhough their players have only played 90 minutes of competitive football in the last few months.

    Cambridge are now a Lesgue One side, whereas Swindon are now League Two. Last season these positions were switched, so I don’t feel there is a huge gap between these two sides. Odds have drifted slightly on a Cambridge win, which is something i agree with. Cambridge’s promotion last season was largely down to the goals scored by Paul Mullin. Mullin scored 32 goals from his 46 appearances so hard to not get promoted when you have that in your side. Weirdly, he has now dropped down a division and plays for National League side Wrexham. I guess Ryan Reynolds will pay him a decent amount of money for dropping down. God only knows how many goals he’ll score for Wrexham this season. Anyway, without Mullin, Cambridge could struggle in League One. Their first match was a 1-1 home draw against Oxford, which came about thanks to a late equalizing penalty. Swindon started well with a 3-1 win over Scunthorpe. There is definitely a potential “upset” here and these two sides are probably closer than the odds suggest.

    Pick: Swindon (+1AH)
