These Capital One Cup games can be tricky, as Man City will almost certainly be resting their best players for most or all of this match.

While Man City is certainly the best team on paper, there is no guarantee that they will come out on top on Tuesday. If you look at the history of the Capital One Cup over the past couple of years, you will see that many of the top teams have gone out in the earlier rounds due to the fact that they are putting out their secondary line-ups.

For this reason, you should be extremely cautious about how much money you put down on this game, as absolutely anything could happen.
