4 Tips for Tuesday’s League Cup Quarter-Finals Action - 10/1/23

Manchester United faces Charlton Athletic on Tuesday night at Old Trafford with the Red Devils coming into this match as firm favourites against League One opposition.

United have managed to score three goals in each of their last three home matches, following victories over Everton (3-1), Bournemouth (3-0) and Nottingham Forest (3-0). Erik ten Hag’s men also amassed a total of 23 corners across each of these three fixtures.

Charlton managed to beat Lincoln City 2-1 in League One at the weekend and received a total of three yellow cards. The Addicks may have some problems against a United side that are looking for their eighth consecutive home win in a row.

Anthony Martial will be looking to get his name on the scoresheet having failed to score in any of his last three appearances.

The 27-year-old has managed five goals and two assists in just 650 minutes worth of first-team football and has managed three shots on target in the last two appearances in the Carabao Cup.

Newcastle United against Leicester City will be an intriguing clash, with both sides looking to advance towards the semi-finals of the competition.

The Magpies recently beat Leicester 3-0 at the King Power Stadium, something which will be fresh in the Foxes' minds, from which Brendan Rodgers will be looking for a reaction.

During this match, there were ten corners taken, with the split being even at five each. However, there were no bookings for either side. With this being an opportunity for a place in the semi-finals and stakes being raised, we could likely see a more feisty match-up, as Leicester versus Fulham proved to be, where eight yellow cards were shown.

Miguel Almiron managed to score in Newcastle’s recent 3-0 victory over Leicester. The 28-year-old is having a superb campaign for Toon Army, as he has scored nine goals in 21 matches.

The former Atlanta United man is priced at 6/4 to have a shot on target in a win for Newcastle. Almiron has taken a total of 28 shots this season, with an accuracy of 57%.
