Ahead of the big international break the EFL Trophy is in the spotlight and it's a tough night for punters looking to beat the bookies.

There are six Premier League Under 21 sides in action, and each of them are away from home. The temptation is to side with these Academy sides but the record books don't support that – only one Under 21 side reached the quarter-finals last season;  Leicester City who were beaten by Tranmere Rovers.

In fact some were on the end of some thumpings;

  • Sunderland 8–1 Aston Villa U21
  • Morecambe 4–0 Manchester United U21
  • Wigan Athletic 6–1 Liverpool U21
  • Oldham Athletic 4–0 Wolverhampton Wanderers U21
  • Accrington Stanley 7–0 Leeds United U21
  • Northampton Town 5–0 Southampton U21
  • Exeter City 4–0 West Bromwich Albion U21
  • Milton Keynes Dons 6–0 Norwich City U21

A few of the youth team DID shine however with Arsenal, West Ham and Manchester City topping their regional groups. So the message is ‘tread carefully'.

Aston Villa U21 really struggled in the competition last season, losing all three games, conceding 14 goals in their three matches. They're playing in the second tier of the Premier League 2 set-up and have won two of their three league games so far but a trip to League One Wycombe looks like it'll be another big step-up for them. Wanderers have started their league campaign well and are just two points off the pace at the top and look good value at 4/5.

    Corner kings River plate kick off in 40 mins away to Sariamento and it’s all about those flag kicks here. River Plate averaging almost 15 corners combined in their matches this season and the home team ten. All points to a big count. Happy to take the very unusual decent prices from Slybet. Nap over 9 corners at 4/6, over ten at evens, over
    11 at 15/8. Small interest for the hell of it on over 12 at 5/2. Good luck if following, hopefully wake up to a winner or five.

    All looked so good with 7 corners on 50mins. Nap wins but rest fall short with ten corners in total.

    Small stakes

    Think the double in Denmark looks overpriced at hills, and always like when the u21 sides get involved in the cup at decent prices.

    Good luck all 🤞🤞

    Afternoon gents,

    I’m packing my best velcroe gloves and bungee cords and heading into The Valleys this evening…

    NEWTOWN VS. CEFN DRUIDS (7.45pm)

    Actually it’s Powys in Central Wales but in the last 12 months, Newtown have put 7-5-4-4 goals past The Druids and, given the visitors hideous form, ewe would have to fancy the chances of a repeat again tonight.

    Here’s what I’m on:

    OVER 3.5 TEAM GOALS
    (1/1, bet365) NAP ⭐⭐⭐

    OVER 4.5 TEAM GOALS
    (9/4 bet365) NB ⭐

    OVER 5.5 TEAM GOALS
    (4/1, bet365) LONGSHOT ⭐

    Best of luck!
