Tuesday's Carling Cup Football
30th October, 2007
Tuesday night sees the opening game of the Carling Cup 4th Round, when Coventry City host West Ham at the Ricoh Arena (Sky Sports 2, k/o 7:45pm). Coventry City have done fantastically well getting through to the 4th Round, having beaten Man Utd 2-0. Although United fielded a team of reserve and youth players, it was a tremendous achievement for Coventry to travel to Old Trafford and secure passage to the next round.
As a result, Iain Dowie’s men go into the game with West Ham full of confidence, and will fancy their chances at home, VC Bet have Coventry priced at 21/10 to record a win. West Ham, however, go into this game in indifferent form, having only won one game in their last four. Alan Curbishley realises that the Carling Cup provides West Ham with a realistic route into Europe; as such bookies believe that West Ham will go all out for the win, with West Ham priced as favourites at 10/11. Whoever you choose to back, this promises to be a game full of surprises.
