EFL Cup Betting Preview: Wigan vs Wycombe

League One teams Wigan and Wycombe square off in this EFL Cup match at The Brick Community Stadium, with kick-off set for 14:45 on Tuesday 23 September. Our betting preview features expert predictions, betting tips, the latest odds, H2H stats, team news and confirmed lineups.

We’re Not Expecting the Goal Tally to Exceed Two

We can make an argument for betting Under 2.5 when it comes to Total Goals. The stats imply that Wigan and Wycombe could fall short of this total and the price of -135 looks a value one.
