⚽ EFL Carabao Cup 2025/26 Season

[AprilioMP]

Arteta should avoid injuries and exhaustion of his players indeed. Brighton is not an easy team to play against with all substitutes because the defeat will be certainly the outcome of this match. I expect him to enroll many main players here.

A difficult match to make a decision on betting if Arsenal and Brighton's line ups are both second tier players starting. The players on the Arsenal bench are those who are included in the main squad. The thing that strengthens a little confidence in choosing Arsenal is the stadium where this match will be held at the Emirates.

Crystal Palace owned Liverpool in their last two matches and out of the last five games, Liverpool were able to win once. This is an obvious advantage for Crystal Palace along with the poor performance of Liverpool since the beginning of the season.

Despite Crystal Palace's dominance over Liverpool in the last two matches, my prediction is that this time Liverpool will not fall into the same hole.

Am I the only Manchester United fan who wanted to see Brentford thrashing Grimsby real good yesterday?! Lo and behold, it happened as expected. I took that as a revenge for knocking Manchester United out.

When I saw the game I was expecting that same energy they [Grimsby] used against Manchester United to be shown in this particular game against Brentford but the EPL side turned the table in their favor with a 5 goal victory and Manchester United fans will be very happy like you are, let's say they did it for Mbeumo and Man UTD. But let's not forget that if the Red Devils have an opportunity to face this very Grimsby I don't think they'll see a full time draw talkless of a win because Manchester United are on another level like the team has a different body language as it stands and I just hope this good form will last till the whole of this season.

The Carabao Cup match will feature a thrilling clash between one of the Premier League's best teams, Liverpool and Crystal Palace, and We are waiting to see how much Liverpool Football Club can prove their worth in this EFL Carabao Cup match. After losing four consecutive Premier League matches, perhaps this team's morale is still not intact, they have already failed in the PL, so it is largely correct that they will probably try to find a strong position in this league and play very tactical football to beat Crystal Palace in today's match. The EFL Cup fourth round match will be held at the Reds' home ground, Anfield, at this stage it's believable that, this could increase the nervous tension for the Palace team to some extent.

Some betting sites are giving Liverpool incredibly high odds today to win against Liverpool and I think it is worth taking. Liverpool need to restore some pride in themselves and also give their fans something to cheer about and even if they did not start with lots of their first team players I still think the players they field are looking for this type of opportunity to prove themselves.
In other games I think that Arsenal should beat Brighton and Chelsea should win wolves but the most difficult fame to predict is between Tottenham Hotspur against Newcastle United.

Liverpool's performance at the beginning of this season was very poor. If Liverpool chooses to play their reserve team in this match instead of their first team, they are guarantyd to lose. Crystal Palace is a fairly strong team and always troubles the top teams in the English Premier League.

I'm just wondering if Arteta thinks of a rotation. You know the schedule is really tight.    They are going really serious for the Premier League championship this season. Maybe he might take some risks in the EFL Cup.

Arteta should avoid injuries and exhaustion of his players indeed. Brighton is not an easy team to play against with all substitutes because the defeat will be certainly the outcome of this match. I expect him to enroll many main players here.

There are more second team players in this game than the regular starters for Arsenal. It is a huge gamble for Arteta, but it is understandable for him not to exhaust key players. Arsenal look a  bit more open because these players have not shown better understanding of each other, but these kind of games are important to help themselves players build confidence in themselves.

I hope this team can maintain the record that Arsenal is setting this season.

Liverpool has more edge over wining Crystal Palace in this encounter, despite they're currently playing 0:0 at the moment.
Chelsea are already in lead with 2 goals over their opponent team Wolves, between the five matches currently on going, only Chelsea and Manchester city game has scored goals, where Manchester City is losing to swansea city and others are currently playing 0:0 in their respective games.

I was watching the match and I decided to come to the forum because I was not enjoying the match anymore, Arsenal used young players in this match and then rested the major players however the coach still picked some important players that are very good to join the young boys, Arsenal would have won the match if they used their major players but because of the premier League match they have this coming weekend they need to rest some players and then use them for the premier League match.
This set of Arsenal players are not very impressive at all they are not playing the way I expected them to play if the keep up like this Brighton we score them and then win the match they should put more effort so as to win the match, just like you said I hope they will not ruin the wonderful set up Arsenal has did since the starting of the season they need to win this match they should put more efforts.

Why do we often forget this thread and keep discussing EFL cup in the Premier league thread.
Let me give it a friendly bump.
Brentford has demolished Grimsby by 5 goals to nil at 80 mins,
While Fulham is struggling with Wycombe to share points.

Am I the only Manchester United fan who wanted to see Brentford thrashing Grimsby real good yesterday?! Lo and behold, it happened as expected. I took that as a revenge for knocking Manchester United out.

I am a Manchester United fan, but I wasn't happy that Brentford humiliated Grimsby on behalf of Manchester United. I didn't see that as a revenge, rather it offended me the more that, if Brentford can win Grimsby by 5 goals, why didn't Manchester United atleast win with a goal. It is saddening to remember.

Fulham I will not say struggled,  they did what they were supposed to do, you just have to sing praises for the Wycombe goalkeeper who made series of saves to help his teammates move into penalties. Appreciate for the bump. Next fixture they go on to face Wolverhampton.

I didn't watch the match, so I didn't know the goalie of Wycombe was exceptionally great. It would have made more sense if they eventually progressed to the next stage ahead of Fulham.

And it was true, Liverpool didn't field their main players in this match. And so far, they are trailing 1-0 to Crystal Palace. And Arne Slot is showing his prowess, even tho the results are poor and they keep losing, he is safe from being fired and remains the Liverpool manager.

The odds clearly shows that Liverpool is not in their best form and they are winless in 4 league matches they can't give them 3 odd against Crystal Palace you expect them to get victory from it when they are not doing well. Liverpool needs time before they can be trusted to be back in that performance that they can defeat strong opponents against Crystal Palace I think the best rest they can get is draw if it will favour them.

Unfortunately, Crystal Palace is beating Liverpool by 0:2 in half-time. I always say a team that is on a losing streak should not be trusted until they have been able to win many games. Liverpool has been in a bad performance for some time now so it will be risky to stake a bet in their favor. Crystal Palace has really found out how to make their way whenever they meet Liverpool because if they win tonight, it will make it three times that Crystal Palace has won them this season. Chelsea is doing very well; they have scored three goals in the first half which makes it an easy one for them. Manchester City and Swansea are playing 1:1 in first half but Manchester City will win when they return for second half.

The first half of the match has just ended, and Liverpool has conceded two goals already in the match, Liverpool performance is really poor right now, I don’t know what’s wrong with Liverpool, but they started the season well, I don’t know what’s the cause of the current decline in their performance, because Liverpool are losing in premier league matches, they still losing in EFL, that’s really a bad one for Liverpool.

With the way Liverpool are playing currently, I don’t know how they will be able to score two goals in the second half of the match without crystal palace scoring also. I don’t think Liverpool will be able to get a win in the match, I don’t expect even a draw from Liverpool in the match, slot is really having a lot of work to do, he should try and fix Liverpool problem as soon as possible.

I can see that Chelsea is leading by 3 goals already. Even from the initial stage, I know quite alright that Chelsea will secure many goals from this particular match against Wolves, because Chelsea started scoring in the early minutes of the match. Andrey Santos scored the first goal with an assist from Jamie Gitten, and the second goal was scored by T. George, also with an assist from Jamie Gitten, while the third goal was scored by Estevao with an assist from Andrey Santos, who scored the first goal. With all this consistency and commitment from the players, I doubt if the Wolves can secure a goal here, not to mention equalise. Now they're at halftime. Let's see what's going to happen in the second half.

Liverpool problems continues in this match. I pity Slot because the more this lingers, the close he is to being sacked. The inconsistencies are just becoming too much. I just hope they can find a way to turn things around in the second half. Chelsea on the other hand is enjoying a time out at Wolves home and heating them 3:0 in just first half. Wolves defense is too porous and is an easy maneuver and Chelsea guys are well exploring that obvious leak in their play pattern. Wolves are playing without their midfield which makes it easier for Chelsea to dominate the midfield and mount unending pressure on them. Second half started, let's see how things unfold.

1:3 now.

[Sexylizzy2813]

As it stands the Reds are currently seeing red against their worst nightmare this season Crystal Palace. Was expecting to see a stronger battle from Liverpool like a revenge to Palace for snatching the Community Shield from them and beating them in the EPL too but it doesn't seem like Liverpool are taking this game seriously. I don't think Liverpool are as strong as they used to be, they are slowly losing that dominance [that's if they haven't lost it all already] in every game they play. Honestly I don't care if they reserve the big boys in this encounter but I expect Slot to make sure they get a win to reduce the loses they have suffered, this is not how Liverpool are suppose to be. But can they get back into this game with 2 goals down?

[9ja Amaka]

Obviously the best odd today is Crystal Palce to win Liverpool. This is the third time this season Liverpool are loosing to CP and I am pretty sure the game will end with a straight win to Crystal Palace. This is just the first half and everything is actually going in favor of Crystal Palace. Too bad, Liverpool are in their worst form this season. 6 loss this season which was unexpected. They were the favorite to win the Carabao cup and English Premier League. Now I think they have to think of the next step.

[IceLincoln]

Despite Crystal Palace's dominance over Liverpool in the last two matches, my prediction is that this time Liverpool will not fall into the same hole.

Oh my friend, they have disappointed you and are deep in the hole already, Liverpool situation is no longer bad but has gotten worse. Crystal Palace is now a big team to Liverpool in their last meetings they have gotten the better of Liverpool back to back to back. Seeing Liverpool perform like this is a sore sight, and maybe the Coach resting players is the cause of this one but still I don’t see them getting back into this game even if the big guys are introduced.
This performance  begs the question “was last season a fluke ?”

The book markers gave Crystal Palace 2 odd for a good reason while Liverpool was given 3 odd, they understood that Liverpool is not is good shape and Crystal Palace defeating them is not going to be very hard you could see how they were very easy to concede the 2 goals it shows that any team can defeat them this season because they seem to be very confused at the moment they are not sure of winning any trophy this season again they should be more concerned about getting back to good form cause the team is becoming a big mess after the huge amount spent in the transfer Market.

I dont know what is wrong with this Liverpool team but they are in a really bad period now. I think they are gonna get knocked out from this tournament. Slot lost all confidence currently and with this tempo i dont know if they can do anything in the premier league aswell. After that win in the champions league i was thinking they were gonna bounce back but they cannot do anything. Crystal palace is really close to winning this match
