Manchester United look worth a wager at the 8/5 on offer with bet365 and Betfred to beat arch rivals Manchester City in thier EFL Cup clash at Old Trafford tonight (8pm KO, Live on Sky Sports 1).
Jose Mourinho’s men had been in fair form, without quite living up to lofty expectations, before suffering a humiliating defeat againt Chelsea when last seen in action.
They went to pieces after an early goal that day and will be without Eric Bailly and Fellaini for this.
However, the vistors will also be without their key playmaker Kevin De Bruyne and their record without him in the side is not great.
City have also been struggling themselves, despite still being top of the Premier League, and are now without a win in five.
It’s all to play for in this and it gives United the chnace to bounce back and show thier fans what they are capable of.
A win will instill them with the confidence to move forward and there is little doubt that they have the firepower at their disposal to causre the City defence all sorts of problems.
They should in their recent game againt Fenherbahce what they are capable of when things click and a repeat of that perforamnce is needed tonight.
I think they can rise to the occasion and put a smile back on Jose’s face, plus that off the fans, and Ibrahimovic is due a goal and looks worth a small punt at 5/1 with Betfred and Stan James to net the openr and hopefully fire them to success.
