England League Cup-Port Vale vs Middlesbrough Predictions

 

 

Port Vale have won three of their last 11 matches

Vale have kept just one clean sheet in their last ten matches on their own patch

Middlesbrough have scored at least twice in 12 of their 15 away games this term

Vale look in for a difficult night

League One Port Vale have not beaten a team from the top two divisions on their way to the Carabao Cup quarter-finals and it seems likely that their memorable run will be ended by Middlesbrough on Tuesday.

 

Vale are 15th in the third tier and while they will have been boosted by Ethan Chislett’s hat-trick giving them a 3-2 win over Wigan on Saturday, that ended a run of five home matches without a victory.

 

They surrendered a two-goal lead when beaten by Stevenage on penalties in their FA Cup replay, so they are struggling to finish the job and it could be that Middlesbrough’s extra class proves too much for the Tunstall outfit.

 

Boro forwards flourish on the road

Much was expected of Boro after they reached the playoffs last season, but they did not hit the ground running and will be disappointed to find themselves in tenth spot.

 

The congested nature of the Championship means they could easily get into top-six contention during the second half of the campaign.

 

One thing that is noticeable with Michael Carrick’s side is that they have been full of goals on the road, scoring 12 times on the last five occasions they have been on their travels.

 

They could keep that run going with a 2-1 win here, having already won at Huddersfield, Bolton, Bradford and Exeter in this competition this season.

 

Tips : Port Vale have yet to test themselves against Championship opposition in this year’s Carabao Cup and they could struggle against Middlesbrough, who have been generally strong on the road this season and are probably stronger than their tenth position in the second tier suggests.

 

Recommendation: Away @1.79

England Championship-Birmingham City VS Leicester City

 

 

With the chance to extend their lead at the top of the Championship standings to three points, Leicester City will travel to St Andrew's to face Birmingham City on Monday.

 

The Blues recorded a desperately-needed win at Cardiff City on Wednesday night, while the Foxes made hard work of earning maximum points from a contest with Millwall.

 

Birmingham were defensively sound on Wednesday against a woeful Cardiff attack, but dealing with Maresca's Leicester will be a different kettle of fish.

 

The Foxes have a good opportunity to stretch their lead at the top of the division, and feel that the visitors will do just that at St Andrew's.

UEFA Champions League-Crvena Zvezda VS Manchester City

 

 

TEAM ANALYSIS:

Crvena Zvezda Analysis:

Crvena Zvezda again failed to win the knockout phase, and the round before the end of the group phase they are also without a chance for 3rd place and the knockout phase of the Europa League. The last chance for that came in the previous round against Young Boys, but despite a lot of goal oportunities, the Serbian champion lost 2-0 in Bern. The match of the last round against Manchester City will be played in a ceremonial manner, because there is no scoring pressure, but it is certainly a challenge for the home team to show themselves in a much better light.

 

Manchester City Analysis:

Manchester City had an unexpectedly tough match against Luton in the previous round of the Premier League when they came from behind to win in the first half. In the Champions League, they reached the 1st place without any problems and secured the target position in group G before the end. A big problem in the upcoming period could be the injury to Haaland, which turned out not to be a long-term one, and the extent has yet to be known. . The current European champion is certainly one of the favorites to go all the way this season.

 

My pick is: UNDER 3@0.87

UEFA Champions League-PSV Eindhoven VS Arsenal

 

Team Analysis:

PSV Eindhoven is playing well. In the last 10 matches, they won 8 and lost 1. And in the last 10 home matches, they won 8 and lost 1. So the Home Team's ability to win is high.

 

Arsenal is playing well. In the last 10 matches, they won 7 and lost 3. And in the last 10 matches away from home, they won 5 and lost 4. Therefore, Away Team's ability to create surprises is high.

 

Odds Analysis:

Since 2022, they have met 3 times, PSV Eindhoven won 1 and lost 2. Asian odds starting at 0 show that Dealer trusts 2 teams but players trust Away Team

 

In my opinion, following the majority in this game is an unsafe choice.

 

Tips:

PSV Eindhoven +0

Over 3
