AUGUST 10: CARLING CUP

I MANAGED to pick up a couple of wins on Tuesday but Carling Cup results meant the usual carnage for punters.

The failure of Championship sides such as Ipswich, Hull, Derby, Burnley, Barnsley and Portsmouth reiterated the fact that betting on the early stages of this competition is a minefield.

There were two more games scheduled for Wednesday but the Bristol Rovers v Watford clash has fallen victim to the riots.

So we're left with one match as Oxford take on a Cardiff side missing eight players on international duty. They include Sunday's matchwinner Kenny Miller and another striker Robert Earnshaw.

The League Two side would have fancied their chances anyway but against the Welsh outfit down to the bare bones they look worth a punt 14-5 with Blue Square.

Recommendation

Oxford

(14-5, Blue Square)
