Manchester City go into this tie with a two-goal cushion after winning fairly comfortably in the first leg. However, after dropping more points in the Premier League at the weekend, despite a two-goal advantage against Spurs, Pep Guardiola’s side may be running low on confidence going into Wednesday's match. Can they reach the EFL Cup Final with a win in this one?

Newcastle are also not on the best form at the moment, having lost heavily against Liverpool in the Premier League at the weekend. Eddie Howe’s side have their work cut out for them in this EFL Cup tie, two goals in arrears and away from home, but the Magpies are the defending champions in this competition and will not go down without a fight. Can they make a comeback on Wednesday?

Spreadex also has a number of spread betting markets for Wednesday’s clash. Our Goal Supremacy market has Man City favoured by 0.65-0.85 goals. This means if you expect City to win, you can “buy” and if you expect either a draw or Newcastle win, you can “sell”.
Our popular Total Goals market is currently set at 2.95-3.15. This is for the total number of goals scored in the match by both teams. Both sides have shown prowess in front of goal this season, and if you expect this to continue, you can “buy” on this market. You would then need at least four goals in the game to turn a profit, with this winning 0.85x your stake, a five-goal game winning 1.85x your stake, and so on.
If you sold you would need two goals or fewer to turn a profit. If the attackers struggled and the game ended 0-0, a sell would win 2.95x your stake. However, if you sold and the game ended 4-2, you would lose 3.05x your stake.
