Capital One Cup Tips: Liverpool to hit a scoring rhythm

Bournemouth v West Brom
Tuesday, 19:45

Match Odds: Bournemouth 2.486/4, West Brom 3.185/40, The Draw 3.5551/20

Following these clubs has been a lot of fun lately: Bournemouth have won four in a row, firing three past Reading and eight past Birmingham - two former Premier League sides - in their previous two games, while West Brom have contested successive 2-2 draws after a 3-2, 4-0 and 1-2 prior to that. Both teams were involved in third-round ties with over 2.5 goals, so that looks the outstanding bet.

Recommended Bet: Back over 2.5 goals @ 1.910/11

MK Dons v Sheffield United
Tuesday, 19:45

Match Odds: MK Dons 2.226/5, Sheffield United 3.55/2, The Draw 3.711/4

MK Dons have enjoyed the Capital One Cup this season. You may recall a 4-0 thrashing of some 20-time English champions, sandwiched between 3-1 and 2-0 wins over AFC Wimbledon and Bradford. Sheffield United are unbeaten in five though, winning three straight away matches. Our preference therefore is to swerve the outcome and side with unders, a feature of the last five head-to-heads, three of MK Dons' last four against League One colleagues and the Blades' most recent three.

Recommended Bet: Back under 2.5 goals @ 2.166/5

Fulham v Derby
Tuesday, 20:00

Match Odds: Fulham 2.6413/8, Derby 2.8815/8, The Draw 3.613/5

Derby haven't conceded in three road trips, but there are two reasons to expect that to change: the Rams surrendering their six-game clean sheet streak against Wigan on Saturday and Fulham scoring ten goals in their past four home fixtures as Kit Symons constructs a compelling case to be named permanent manager. The visitors have netted nine in four away themselves, so this should be lively.

Recommended Bet: Back both teams to score @ 1.728/11

Liverpool v Swansea
Tuesday, 20:00

Match Odds: Liverpool 1.834/5, Swansea 4.84/1, The Draw 4.03/1

Liverpool obtained a long overdue first clean sheet in ten against Hull at the weekend, yet a repeat will be trickier to achieve against a Swansea squad who have already struck twice away to both Man United and Chelsea. Last term's Liverpool v Swansea double header saw the clubs draw 2-2 in Wales and the Reds prevail 4-3 at Anfield. Each of their past three clashes on Merseyside, one of which was in the Capital One Cup two campaigns ago, delivered at least four goals.

Recommended Bet: Back over 2.5 goals @ 1.784/5
