Dundee United vs Celtic

Celtic find themselves suffering through the most troubling opening chapter to Wilfried Nancy's tenure, with the Parkhead giants having experienced the ignominy of losing every one of their initial three matches under their new manager. The painful 3-1 reverse to St Mirren in the Scottish League Cup final epitomised a nadir that few associated with so grand an club could have foreseen.

The Frenchman enters the first manager in the club's storied annals to lose his initial three matches in charge, and one senses a palpable hunger to arrest this alarming decline.

Still, confidence may be drawn from United's ongoing struggles. The Dundee side have failed to claim three points in any of their most recent seven fixtures, and for all Celtic's recent turmoil, the away side still possess superior ability. We are supporting the Glasgow institution to claim an essential triumph.

Glasgow Glory, 1.48 – 3SZFYFR

City's Quarter-Final Pursuit

Manchester City enter this League Cup quarter-final as overwhelming favourites to claim progression and march into the next phase of the cup. The Etihad outfit clearly possess more accomplished collection of talent than their opponents.

Though Brentford have functioned beyond expectations under recently-appointed manager Keith Andrews this term, the West Londoners have now been unable to claim three points from any of their last three matches. Moreover, they have likewise been unable to secure victory from any of their previous five encounters with the Citizens – including four losses.

With that in mind, we are supporting Manchester City to claim progression and qualify for the semi-finals.

City's progression, 1.19 – 3SZG9LC

Newcastle United vs Fulham

Harry Wilson is savouring a magnificent run of confidence for Fulham, with the Welsh international registering four goals in his last seven appearances for the West London outfit. The winger additionally claimed a treble for his nation during the November qualifying window.

Combined with Newcastle's recent defensive frailties, conceding at least a single strike in each of their previous eight matches across all competitions, we are endorsing Wilson to register on the score sheet once more here.

Harry Wilson to score anytime, 4.75 – 3SZGJRB

Talavera de La Reina vs Real Madrid

Real Madrid this encounter with modest Talavera de La Reina in the Copa del Rey round of 32 comprehensively expected to dominate the evening and record success by a comfortable distance.

Los Blancos are expected to rotate their starting XI for this encounter, but their rotation options certainly prove sufficiently talented of securing a major triumph. We are endorsing their quality to dominate in this contest, with an emphatic triumph and at minimum 3.5 goals netted.

Madrid's goal-laden victory, 1.96 – 3SZGVNM
