Betting on the EFL Cup
Betting on the EFL Cup is similar to the FA Cup where plenty of upsets, or ‘giant killings’ can happen, especially in the early rounds. Clubs in the lower divisions often defeat well established Premier League clubs.
Manchester United have been eliminated by lower league clubs on numerous occasions. In 1995-96 the Red Devils were beaten 3-0 at home by York City in the second round before going out 4-3 on aggregate.
Man United were knocked out by Southend United in 2006-07 and Coventry City in 2007-08. In 2014-15, United lost 4-0 in the second round against third-tier club MK Dons.
One of the reasons for big upsets in the EFL Cup is many top clubs concentrating on other competitions. Some Premier League managers rest their top players in the competition and play their fringe players.
