Football – England – EFL Cup Betting Tips

QPR got their new Championship campaign off to a flying start with a thoroughly convincing 3-0 home win over Leeds United at Loftus Road on Sunday, and they now take on League One outfit Swindon Town again on home turf in this evening’s EFL Cup first round clash.

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has come in and there has been a squad clear-out during the summer with youth replacing the older (and higher wage earning) players, and the new blend of youth and experience worked well in their opening fixture.

Defender Grant Hall along with midfielders Chery, Luongo and Shodipo were among the players that caught the eye, and their slick fast-moving exchanges often had Leeds chasing shadows, and there’s no reason why they can’t find similar space to operate within against Swindon Town tonight.

Visitors Swindon Town secured all three points in their opening League One fixture of the new season with a 1-0 win over depleted Coventry City at the County Ground, but they’ll have their work cut out in this evening’s League Cup tie away in the capital.

Nevertheless, The Robins have won their last four away matches in this competition and they’ll be hoping to replicate their previous success at QPR where they beat The Hoops 2-0 back in 2013 with goals from Nile Ranger and Alex Pritchard.

Swindon now have a very young side, particularly in the middle of the park, and they will rely heavily on the front pair of Obika and Hylton not only tonight, but this season, for inspiration in the final third.
