by Steve Ashfield in Carabao Cup Predictions
The bottom two clubs in the Premier League face each other in the Carabao Cup third round. 19th placed Southampton travel to Everton who are bottom of the table, neither with a point to their name. Here's our match prediction.
Everton have a good record in this competition with the quarter-finals reached in three of the last five seasons. That's despite all the relegation struggles they have had in the Premier League during that time.
It's been a troublesome start to the new season for the Toffees. All four of their league games have been lost but they led 2-0 in the last two played. After doing that against Bournemouth at home, the same happened at Aston Villa.
Their only win this season was a 3-0 home victory over Doncaster Rovers, that's also their only clean sheet this term. Three of their last four games against Southampton have seen both teams score a goal.
The Saints are also without a point in the Premier League and only above Everton on goal difference. The weekend saw them lose 3-0 at home to Manchester United. That was the third successive game in which they've conceded three goals.
Two were in the Premier League but they also let in three goals when winning 5-3 away to Championship side Cardiff City in the last round of this competition.
We go for both teams to score in this match.

This Carabao Cup tie gives both clubs some temporary relief from their Premier League struggles. They have both had some success in this compeitition in recent seasons and a win for ether side would be a good confidence boost.

2 Goals Ahead Early Payout Offer
One of the worst feelings when placing a football bet is when the team that you have backed has gone into a multiple-goal lead only to be clawed back to a draw or to lose the game in question. This is something that bet365 has rectified for their bettors courtesy of this offer. If the team that you backed takes a two-goal lead your bet will be paid out as a winner. That is any two-goal lead so 2-0, 3-1, 4-2 etc will all be paid out early as a winner if your team is in that position. This is available in 80 different competitions including the major leagues across Europe and can be played on the full-time result market. Singles and multiples are both valid for this offer but you cannot bet on enhanced price markets. As with most promotions, if you cash out a bet in full, the bet will no longer be available for the offer in question. It also cannot be used if you bet on the draw on a game.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
