Capital One Cup on Betfair:  64/1 Swans and 999/1 Bantams to contest final
Michael Laudrup will take his Swansea side to Wembley

"Swansea have been matched at 65.064/1 to lift the trophy in late Ferbruary, and are now strong 1.21/5 favourites, but the remarkable story is that of League Two outfit Bradford."

Two of the tournament's outsiders, including League Two outfit Bradford, will contest this year's Capital One Cup final. Mike Norman details the In-Play odds...


Swansea will play Bradford City in the Capital One Cup final after beating Chelsea 2-0 on aggregate this evening.

In a game that will make the headlines for all the wrong reasons, Chelsea - rather like Aston Villa last night - failed to mount any serious pressure for a side needing to attack, and at the conclusion Swansea were full value for their 0-0 draw on the night.

The 0-0 Correct Score was matched at 19.5 with the draw being matched at a high of 6.05/1 In-Play.

But the game will be overshadowed by Eden Hazard's dismissal 10 minutes from time for what appeared to be a kick on a ball boy who seemed to be attempting to waste time by laying on the ball. A Sending Off was matched at 12.011/1.

Swansea have been matched at 65.064/1 to lift the trophy in late Ferbruary, and are now strong 1.21/5 favourites, but the remarkable story is that of League Two outfit Bradford.

The Bantams have been matched at Betfair's maximum price of 1000.0999/1 to win the competition, but a win over Arsenal, and a two-legged aggregate victory over Aston Villa, mean Phil Parkinson's men are now available to back at just 5.79/2 to record what would be seen as the biggest shock in the competition's history should they prevail.

In tonight's Premier League fixture Arsenal came from a goal down to beat West Ham 5-1 in a game that saw the Gunners score an incredible four goals in a 10 minute spell at the start of the second half.

Arsene Wenger's men were matched at a high of just 2.588/5 when trailing, while the 5-1 Correct Score was matched at 75.074/1.
