Carling Cup Betting

The Carling Cup without doubt plays second fiddle to FA Cup Betting but it is still an important trophy for many teams and a route into European competition. In recent years it has reduced in priority for the major clubs as with the extension of the Champions League the big three Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea usually field their second teams in the run up to the semi finals of this competition and sometimes all the way to the final.

Manchester United 2-1 Aston Villa - 2010 Carling Cup Final at Wembley.

Goals from Michael Owen and Wayne Rooney were enough to give United the Carling Cup for the second season running. Villa had taken the lead through a Milner penalty, but United dominated the game thereafter, particularly in the second half, where both their tactics and experience made all the difference.

When it comes to Football Betting the Carling Cup is always an interesting tournament to have a look at and this season has been no different as we approach the final on February 28th. There has been some cracking ties, none more so than the Aston Villa v Blackburn second leg played at Villa Park, in which Villa won in a goal fest of a match, by six goals to four. Villa are now in the final and will meet Manchesster United who defeated great rivals Manchester City by 4-3 over the  two legs.  .

When reviewing the Carling Cup odds at the start of the season it is probably worthwhile looking at some of the Premier League teams who just finish mid table each season as in future years this may become the trend for who wins the Carling Cup.
