Bradford vs Liverpool Academy Betting Tips &— Over 3.5 Goals
Bradford enters this cup matchup in high spirits, having triumphed in their last three games. They are optimistic about their chances against a Liverpool Academy side that hasn’t won any of their last five matches.
However, a home victory provides minimal value in this match, so we shift our focus to the goal markets. Given the impressive performance of both teams this season, a high-scoring EFL Trophy game is expected on Tuesday.
Bradford, the hosts, enter this cup competition with a history of over 2.5 goals scored in eight of their previous nine matches spanning the last six weeks. Both teams scored goals in six out of these eight games. Furthermore, in Bradford’s home games, at least three goals were scored in four out of the last five matches.
Since the end of August, over 2.5 goals have been scored in nine of the last 11 matches involving the visiting Liverpool U21 team. In six of their last seven matches, both teams have scored.
Cup contests like these tend to be high-scoring and I am confident we should see at least three goals scored on Tuesday. As such, I´m taking over 2.5 goals while I wouldn’t be shocked to see at least four, and potentially more scored in a high-scoring affair.
