It's a busy night in the EFL Trophy and one of the most interesting ties sees Manchester United's Under-21s head to Huddersfield Town.
With Ruben Amorim about to take the reins at Old Trafford, the kids will be keen to put on a show as they bid to prove they deserve a place in the new manager's long-term plans.
It won't be easy against a decent League One outfit, with Town sitting eighth in the third tier after Saturday's 2-2 draw with Crawley Town.
But the Old Trafford youngsters have already claimed the scalp of Barnsley in Group F and sit second in the section after also beating Doncaster on penalties.
Huddersfield Town vs Manchester United U21s top betting tips
The bookies reckon youth will be no match for experience in this one, with Betano making Huddersfield Town their 1/3 hot favourites. A lot will depend on how strong a side Town manager Michael Duff picks but they don't have a league game at the weekend so I'd be surprised if he made a lot of changes.
If Duff does field a decent side, Huddersfield should be too strong but Manchester United certainly have the talent to pose a few problems. Some of their starlets may miss out due to youth internationals though, with Tyler Fletcher pulling out of Scotland Under-19 duty with an injury.
The Old Trafford kids have scored three times in each of their EFL Trophy games so far so a Huddersfield win with BTTS looks good 27/20 with Betano.
Backing over 1.5 first-half goals also appeals and that pays evens with Betfred.
Barrow vs Aston Villa U21s top betting tips
Aston Villa's kids have also impressed in the EFL Trophy this season so I'm surprised to see them as outsiders for tonight's tie against a Barrow side who have nothing to play for.
The League Two outfit can't qualify for the next stage after losing both of their games so far while Villa lead the section having followed up a win over Fleetwood with a shoot-out success against Bolton.
Barrow are on a seven-game run without a win in all competitions but are Betano's 9/10 favourites, while the Premier League youngsters are 11/5 shots. That price may be down to the prospect of some Villa kids being called up for youth internationals but it still looks worth a punt.
I'd imagine Barrow boss Stephen Clemence will rest players and give some of his own youngsters a chance so I also fancy over 1.5 Villa goals at 13/10 with Betano.
East Kilbride vs Ayr United top betting tips
We have a few SPFL Trust Trophy ties in Scotland tonight too and it will be fascinating to see how Lowland League side East Kilbride get on against Ayr United.
Kilby claimed the scalp of another Championship side in the last round as they beat Airdrie on penalties but the Diamonds are in the midst of a horror run that has left them adrift at the foot of the table.
Ayr represent a much stiffer test as they sit third in the table but Scott Brown's men aren't in great form, with just two wins in their last six outings. Betano still make them 11/20 favourites but combining an Ayr win with under 4.5 goals boosts the odds to 49/40 in a bet builder.
That bet appeals as we haven't seen over 3.5 strikes for the last nine matches involving the Honest Men.

Not from what I can see? Ayr 23/20?
Finished 3-2 East Kilbride. Ayr done themself no favours by giving them a 2 goal start.
At the time I posted (back of 1 this afternoon) East Kilbride were 6/5 and Ayr 19/10 on Boylesports. Ayr were also 7/4 on 365. Ayr now odds on 4/5
