We’re treading carefully in tonight’s EFL Trophy, honing in one match that looks intriguing.
Remember that all Premier League Academy teams play away in the group stages of this competition and that’s usually to their disadvantage.
Seven of the youth teams finished bottom of their group last season. Another four failed to qualify, finishing third. Two finished in second place and three; Man Utd, Everton and Chelsea, topped their four-team group.
Two are in action tonight with the Under 21 squads from Newcastle United and Nottingham Forest travelling to Wrexham and Harrogate respectively and the Magpies were of those to finish stone last in 2022/23 edition, picking up just one point from their three games in the Northern Section’s Group E, failing to score a single goal in the process against Doncaster, Barnsley or Lincoln.
That would suggest they might find things tough at ambitious Wrexham tonight. The young Magpies haven’t made a great start to the Premier League 2 campaign with just one point from four games in which they’ve conceded 12.
Wrexham squeezed in seven games in August and provided plenty of entertainment with games finishing 4-2, 3-5 and 5-5 so we could see a few goals tonight against an inexperienced defence.
The Wrexham win is just 4/9 so add in Over 2.5 Goals to make it a 10/11 BetBuilder.
