Thursdays top tips 4

Tottenham head into the second leg of tonight's EFL Cup semi-final with a lead over Liverpool but the bookies reckon the Reds will roar back at Anfield.

After losing 6-3 in the Premier League to Arne Slot's side in London just before Christmas, it was a shock when injury-hit Spurs shut them out just a couple of weeks later to claim a 1-0 victory in the first leg.

The prospect of lifting some silverware has given under-pressure boss Ange Postecoglou a bit of respite but BoyleSports reckon the Aussie's dreams of EFL Cup glory will crumble tonight, with Liverpool 2/7 hot favourites to reach the final.

Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspur top betting tips

This game will have a huge bearing on Postecoglou's future at Spurs so I'd imagine he'll have his players fired up for it. Two Tottenham midfielders were booked in the first leg and youngster Lucas Bergvall was lucky to escape a second yellow.

If the kid gets the nod again tonight he looks decent value for a card at 11/5 with BoyleSports but Postecoglou could go with experience and play a trio of Yves Bissouma, Pape Sarr and Rodrigo Betancur.

So over 40.5 booking points looks a safer bet at 11/10, given plenty of tasty tackles could go in with a place in the final at stake.

The first leg only produced four corners in total, which was another surprise as both these sides have regularly seen their games hit double figures on that count. Second legs are usually more open so I like over 11.5 corners at evens.

Dejan Kulusevski is always a threat for Tottenham so I'm surprised to see the Swede as big as 11/8 at BoyleSports just to have an effort on target.

Chesterfield vs Doncaster Rovers top betting tips

Doncaster have hit top gear in League Two and will be looking to take another step towards automatic promotion when they visit Chesterfield tonight.

Second-placed Rovers have won their last four in the league after the high of knocking Championship side Hull City out of the FA Cup.

They have another big cup tie looming against Premier League outfit Crystal Palace but the focus will be on picking up three more precious points in the league.

Mid-table Chesterfield are in poor form, with just one win from their last eight, so another Doncaster win looks good value at  8/5 with BoyleSports.

Rovers are probably that price because they lost 3-0 at home to Chesterfield earlier in the season but they had two players sent off that night.

Four of Chesterfield's last five games have hit double figures for corners so over 10.5 flag kicks should also stand a chance at evens.

Valencia vs Barcelona top betting tips

It's quarter-final time in the Copa Del Rey and Barcelona are BoyleSports' 3/10 hot favourites for their clash with Valencia at the Mestalla.

Given Barca battered Los Che 7-1 in the league just a few weeks ago, it's easy to see why they are such a short price.

But that rout is the only blip on what has been a Valencia revival since Carlos Corberan since started his reign with a 2-1 loss to Real Madrid.

Corberan has won four and drawn one of his other five games so Valencia should put up more of a fight on home turf tonight.

It's a game that promises goals and over 3.5 strikes looks good at 11/10 with BoyleSports. I also like BTTS and over 2.5 goals at 20/21.

The last meeting produced 18 corners so over 10.5 flag kicks could also pay off at 6/4.
