It promises to be a hot game. This will take place on Wednesday, 6 January from 8:45 pm at Old Trafford. The Red Devils have the right to go home. Whether this can be used and how the odds for the duel turn out must be clarified in the following betting tip forecast.
(Status of odds: 05.01.2021, 10:36 o’clock)
The Red Devils have played three games in the EFL Cup so far. The big opponents didn’t show up yet. The first round put Luton on the slip. After 90 one-sided minutes, there was a 3-0 victory. Immediately afterwards, Brighton was defeated 3-0. Most recently, it was necessary to exist in Everton. This task was also mastered with a pretty sure 2-0 success. Thus nothing stood in the way of entering the semi-finals. Manchester City, however, is likely to be of a completely different calibre. After all, the Red Devils are now enjoying their home right. All previous cup games were played in the distance.
In the domestic league, the team of coach Solskjaer recently played strongly and won four of the last five matches. In total, the team has been undefeated for ten days. Last but not least, a narrow 2-1 victory against Aston Villa was to be played out against the home backdrop. Martial and Fernandes (penalties) scored the goals for the home team. With a strong record of ten wins, three draws and three defeats, 33 points were scored in the current season. On the last match day, the Red Devils equalised with the reigning leader from Liverpool. Due to the worse goal ratio, however, it is currently only enough for second place.
ManU is not exactly strong in the league and won only four out of nine home matches. There were also two draws and three defeats. Whether the home weakness can be eliminated in the cup remains to be seen.

Just like ManU, Manchester City has had to play three games in the EFL Cup so far. Already in the first match, the Citizens didn’t exactly glorify themselves and came up against Bournemouth with an Ach and Krach in front of the home scene to a narrow 2-1. The second duel was then made much more sovereign and led to a 3-0 victory at Burnley. In the quarter-finals, the Gunners had to pass. The first round was fairly balanced between the two teams and resulted in a 1-1 win. After the change of sides, City gained a clear and not undeserved 4-1 victory. Both away games should be played very successfully in the cup so far.
In the English Premier League, the team of coach Pep Guardiola recently found their way back into the track. Three consecutive victories were won. The last match day brought a clear 3-1 victory against Chelsea. Already in the first round, the scores of Gündogan, Foden and De Bruyne set the course for victory. In general, City has been unbeaten in the Premier League for seven games. This resulted in five victories and two draws. Due to the recent strong performances, the Guardiola-Elf is back in the top class. With a record of eight wins, five draws and two defeats, the team occupies fifth place. The gap to the Liverpool leader is four points.
Four out of eight away games in the league should be won. These successes are offset by three draws and one defeat.

5 Wins Manchester United – 1 Draw – 4 Wins Manchester City
The odds tend slightly towards a victory of the Citizens. Although Manchester United should not be underestimated at this point. Both teams have first-class players in their own ranks. Recently, both teams separated without scoring. The EFL Cup is not a very important event in England. Both teams are more likely to focus on the Premier League. For this reason, it is to be expected that one or the other substitute player will be used. As part of our betting tip forecast, a spectacle is not to be expected. For this reason, it is advisable to bet on less than 3.5 goals.
