EFL Cup picks for Man City vs. Watford
Before you tune in to Tuesday's match, you need to see the Carabao Cup picks from soccer expert Martin Green. After working in the sports betting industry for several years, Green became a professional sports writer and handicapper and has covered the game worldwide. Last year he was profitable in multiple areas on his soccer picks, including Euro qualifying (+6.30 units), the EFL Cup (+4.47), the FA Cup (+3.07) and the Champions League (+3.05) among others.
For Manchester City vs. Watford, Green is picking Man City to win with a clean sheet for -112 payout. The Citizens haven't lost a match at home in nearly two years and that streak continues thanks to Stone's heroics on Sunday. Meanwhile, Watford has lost away matches against Norwich City and Sheffield United already this month and might be looking to rest some key players with three matches in an eight-day span beginning on Saturday.
"Guardiola led Man City to four consecutive EFL Cup titles between 2018 and 2021. Some Premier League managers do not take this competition seriously, but Guardiola has always respected it," Green told SportsLine. "His team suffered a 1-0 defeat to Newcastle in the third round last season, but Guardiola still chose a reasonably strong starting XI for that game. He will be keen to go deeper into this year's competition, so we should see another relatively strong Man City lineup."
