Las Vegas - Don't tell anyone in Manchester that the EFL Carabao Cup is not important. Don't tell the Gallagher brothers, Noel and Liam, from Oasis, who both support City. Don't tell Floyd Mayweather or Manny Pacquiao who both support United, 'cause they'll knock you OUT! Anytime the two GIANTS from Manchester square off, it's EPIC. They call it the Manchester derby, but pronounce it DARBY! Don't have any insight into that, sorry. But with both United and City at the top of their game, it should be intense, hard fought and probably provide a handful of goals. They'll play at Old Trafford, United's home, but obviously without fans. The last time these two met, back in December, also at Old Trafford, it was a dull 0-0 final. Not expecting a pair of bagels in this spot, but do look for a tight fit. The problem is, knowing who, and how many players will miss due to positive COVID-19 tests. City played without Ederson, Gabriel Jesus, Kyle Walker, Ferran Torres, Eric Garcia and Tommy Doyle against Chelsea and we're hearing they might miss this game as well. For United, striker Edinson Cavani will miss due to a three game suspension, but the Red Devils have no other major injuries to report. City has scored 10 goals in the last four games, while United has tickled the net 16 times in the last six. With the Over/Under total sitting at only 2.5 goals, we're gonna rock the OVER. Also, since the teams are so evenly matched, thinking about tickling the draw at +$280. If you're new to betting soccer, the wager is based on the score after 90 minutes and an any injury time. This game will go to extra time and a shootout if necessary, but has no effect on the draw bet.
