Leicester vs Tranmere Rovers Prediction & Betting Tips - Carabao Cup
by Ian John | in Carabao Cup Predictions
Leicester City will face Tranmere Rovers in the Carabao Cup this week, a re-run of the 2000 Final, in which Leicester won 2-1. The Premier League Foxes have beaten the Super White Army in every previous Carabao Cup fixture. So does our prediction follow the form for this match, or could the League Two underdogs pull off a shock win?
Now led by Steve Cooper, Leicester City began the season with a creditable draw with Tottenham Hotspur in their opening game, but they then went down to a narrow 2-1 defeat away to Fulham. They won’t be too fazed at facing Tranmere at this stage. They did so last season at Prenton Park and comfortably won that game 2-0.
With good depth in his squad, even if Cooper decides to rotate players for this fixture, the Foxes, especially at home, should have more than enough quality to get the job done.
Tranmere won’t make it easy. They have not conceded a goal in three league games and trounced Accrington Stanley 3-0 in the First Round to earn a shot against the Foxes. However, Nigel Adkins' men did come unstuck against Everton Under 21’s in the Football League Trophy, losing 3-1 to the young Toffees.
Rovers have yet to concede a goal in the league but have scored just once in three League Two matches. It is a massive ask for this team to go to the King Power Stadium and take the win.

Our Leicester vs Tranmere Rovers Prediction
Our prediction for the Leicester City vs. Tranmere Rovers Carabao Cup Second Round tie is: Leicester to win and Both Teams to Score - No.
Steve Cooper's Foxes have started the season well, earning a point against Tottenham before losing narrowly to Fulham. They scored in both those games and won't be fazed coming up against a Tranmere team that have struggled for goals this season and who shipped three at home to Everton's U21 team in the Football League Trophy last week.
Prediction :
Leicester to win and Both Teams to Score - No.

More than 80 leagues and competitions are available on this football promotion from bet365. If the team that you have backed takes a two-goal lead at any point in the game, then your bet is a winner. This counts on both single bets and on multiple placed on the full time market, though of course on a multiple it is only the game in question that is marked as a winner, all the other selections still have to win as well.
A bet placed on any enhanced price is not valid for this offer, nor any bet that is cashed out. If you have partially chased out, the remainder of the stake is paid out as a winner. If your acca selection would have been a loser but for this offer then you will not gain any acca boost winnings. So for example, your team goes 2-0 up so you are paid out as a winner but the end result is 2-2, your bet is still a winner if all the other selections win but you do not gain any acca boost.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
