Bristol City vs Manchester United Carabao Cup Betting PT 1
- By A.J. Ryder on December 20, 2017 19:28 GMTJose Mourinho’s Manchester United side are lining up to take on Bristol City in the League Cup today and they have named a relatively strong side so you can expect them to come out here and attempt to put on a show by running up the score against the lower league side.
The bookmakers are extremely confident that Manchester United will be able to get the better of their opposition here and they have them backed all the way down to a ½ price tag to secure victory.
Bristol City, on the other hand, can be backed at a pretty hefty price of around 7/2 at the time of this writing and it may drift a little higher as we get closer to kick-off prior to shifting to the in-play markets. It really all looks to be about who scores first and with the firepower Manchester United have at their disposal, you have to reckon they are good value to do so.
If, for some reason, you think this contest is going to go to penalties or extra time then you can back Manchester United to win by any method at a slim ¼ price tag right now while their counterparts Bristol City are available at a solid price of around 3/1.
In regards to the first goalscorer option, you’re looking at Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Romelu Lukaku both available at a solid price of 7/2 to open up the scoring in this match-up. A few bookmakers have them floated as low as an 11/4 margin at this point in time and you can bank on them getting things done ahead of their counterparts on the other team.
