EFL Cup picks for Arsenal vs Crystal Palace
Before watching Wednesday’s game, you should see football expert Martin Green’s EFL Cup picks. After working in the sports betting industry for several years, Green became a professional sports writer and handicapper and covered the game around the world. Last year he was profitable in several areas on his football picks for everyone who follows him on betting apps and sites, including Euro qualifying (+6.30 units), EFL Cup ( +4.47), the FA Cup (+3.07) and the Champions League (+3.05), among others.
For Arsenal vs Crystal Palace, Green backs both teams to score for a -110 win. The pundit agrees that the Gunners are hot favorites to win the EFL Cup and have outscored the Eagles 12-1 in the last four meetings between the teams. However, Arsenal’s defense is suffering from injuries and the offense is not completely in sync, which could open the door for a Crystal Palace side that has scored in five straight matches.
Green points out that Palace could face some fatigue as they are not as used to playing midweek matches. That being said, manager Oliver Glasner takes the competition very seriously and is expected to field a strong starting XI at the Emirates.
