As ever with early rounds of the competition the Premier League sides will look to rest some players and that makes it difficult to have a strong bet on these matches, although there is potential for an upset so the really short prices such as Liverpool, West Ham and West Brom are probably best avoided.
Tonight’s banker look to be Bolton Wanderers to win at Tranmere. The hosts have showed nothing this season and were thumped 5-0 at the weekend. Elsewhere we are siding with Derby to beat Brentford. Derby won 3-0 at the weekend but have been poor so far at home. This will be the ideal chance to get their first home win of the season against a Brentford side who have only drawn both away matches so far.
Our third pick is Huddersfield to beat Charlton. Charlton were 3-1 down against Doncaster at the weekend before a waterlogged pitch saved them and are yet to win a league game. Confidence will be high at Huddersfield after a 5-1 win on Saturday made it three wins in their last four matches.
Our final pick is Southampton to beat Barnsley. The Championship side have not won this season in 90 minutes, their first round success needed penalties against Scunthorpe and they shipped five goals against Blackburn at the weekend, the Premier League class of Southampton should be more than enough to get the win tonight.
