Match Prediction

Backing Tottenham -2 at -116 could provide a nice return. There’s some insurance in this bet although we think this EFL Cup clash will be a one-sided affair and the price looks attractive.

It's essential to know the players who are missing for the next clash along with the form for each of the two sides. If you’re looking for the best EFL Cup stats, we will showcase them and they provide the foundation for our football picks.

Key Tottenham vs Doncaster EFL Cup & league stats:

  • The +2 line hasn’t been covered by Doncaster in 3 of their last 7 games on the road.
Spurs -2 Probability
