PREDICT AND WIN SBI SHARES: Football Prediction #15 (26/10/2021) - League Cup: Arsenal v Leeds

in #contest3 years ago

WHAT A WEEKEND!

Our featured game, which as I expected, put Brighton to their stiffest test yet and which they failed miserably going down 4-1 to Man. City, and I'd have to say, they were poor and seemed a little overawed by the task, which is one thing you can't be when playing the big teams. The small teams need to use their fight and determination to get a result, and talking of LITTLE teams...

Scum 0 : 5 Liverpool. Oh such sweet joy, the best result of the season so far. It's Tuesday now and I'm still laughing. Clueless, bottleless and totally lacking in quality, Manchesters second team are heading for a deep dive down the table.

On that high note, let's turn to the EFL Cup tonight and a huge game...

@gentmartin's Prediction

Leeds turned in a much-improved performance at the weekend but only ended in a draw at home against Wolves were the most negative team I've seen play at Leeds, sitting on their lead and paying for it as Leeds pressed mercilessly and it ultimately cost them as we brought on the incredible Joe Gelhardt whose runs into the box earned us a penalty in injury time which was cooly taken under pressure by a much improved Rodrigo.

Tonight we will be buoyed on by that performance and absolutely hammer an Arsenal side who have blown hot and cold and who no doubt will be resting some of their 'top' players.

Sadly Raphina took a knock so will be out as well as Bamford and Ayling but I can see a gentle return for Kalvin Phillips and I'm sure Gelhardt will feature again as he is integrated into the first team and as a scouser with ice in his veins, will no doubt stay grounded despite all the plaudits coming his way in the press after his 30 minutes, influential appearance on Saturday.

Arsenal...I don't care. They are stuffed. Sorry, not sorry @pusen lol ;-)
