Dundee United vs Celtic

The Bhoys endure suffering within the most troubling beginning to Wilfried Nancy's stewardship, with the Celtic Park colossus having suffered the humiliation of defeat in all their opening three encounters under their recently-appointed tactician. The painful 3-1 loss to St Mirren in the Scottish League Cup final epitomised a nadir that few aligned with this institution could have imagined.

Nancy has become the first manager in the Bhoys' storied history to suffer defeat in his initial three fixtures in charge, and one senses an urgent need to arrest this alarming decline.

Yet, optimism may be drawn from the Tangerines' persistent struggles. The Dundee club have failed to record three points in any of their last seven matches, and despite Celtic's current difficulties, the Bhoys still boast superior talent. We are backing the green-and-white brigade to secure a much-needed three points.

The Bhoys victorious, 1.48 – 3SZFYFR

Manchester City vs Brentford

Manchester City enter this League Cup quarter-final as overwhelming front-runners to secure victory and move into the subsequent round of the competition. The hosts manifestly boast more accomplished squad than their opponents.

While Brentford have operated exceeding predictions under recently-appointed manager Keith Andrews this campaign, the Gtech Community Stadium outfit have now proved incapable to secure victory in any of their previous three fixtures. Additionally, they have equally proved incapable to win any of their last five fixtures with the Citizens – including four defeats.

With that in mind, we are City to secure progression and qualify for the penultimate stage.

City's progression, 1.19 – 3SZG9LC

Newcastle United vs Fulham

Harry Wilson is enjoying an exceptional run of form for Fulham, with the Welsh maestro scoring four goals in his most recent seven appearances for the West London outfit. The winger additionally secured a hat-trick for his Wales during the November qualifying break.

Alongside Newcastle's current vulnerability, allowing at no fewer than a goal in all of their last eight matches across every competitions, we are backing Wilson to find on the scoresheet once more in this encounter.

Harry Wilson to score anytime, 4.75 – 3SZGJRB

Madrid's Copa Dominance

Real Madrid enter this meeting with modest Talavera de La Reina in the Copa del Rey round of 32 widely anticipated to dominate the fixture and claim triumph by a comfortable distance.

Los Blancos are likely to refresh their team for this encounter, but their reserve squad undoubtedly prove more than capable of claiming a comprehensive victory. We are backing their class to dominate in this fixture, with a comfortable win and at least 3.5 goals registered.

Real Madrid & over 3.5 goals, 1.96 – 3SZGVNM
