League Cup Betting Odds
Our EFL Cup betting odds outline the current likelihood of various events happening on the pitch and how much you stand to win if your bet is successful.
- Odds under Evens (i.e. 1/10) suggest a favourite
- Odds over Evens (i.e. 20/1) suggest an underdog
The magic of the League Cup is that it creates matchups between teams that don’t ordinarily play each other, presenting you with a number of betting options and potential payouts depending on the club or player you’re backing
For example, let’s say Liverpool are playing Wrexham in the League Cup quarter-finals:
- Liverpool to win: 1/9
- Wrexham to win: 19/1
While the odds are stacked in Liverpool’s favour, they can still lose – as seen when Manchester United were knocked out of the 2022/23 EFL Cup by Middlesbrough in the fourth round.
Despite their Premier League status and stronger squad, United were eliminated 1-0 by the Championship side, showcasing the drama and unpredictability that makes the EFL Cup so exciting.
