Our prediction for this EFL Cup match:
Oxford United
Match Time & Date:

02:45 PM
Prediction: 0-1
Manchester City
The Kassam Stadium will host Tuesday’s football match between Oxford United and Manchester City, who face each other in the 3rd round of the EFL Cup. Oxford United set up a meeting with the Citizens by beating the likes of Coventry City and Newport County, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry in Tuesday’s football match. Manchester City did well to make amends for a shocking 2-1 loss to Olympique Lyon in the Champions League, with the team rolling over Cardiff City 5-0 and the visitors must be high on confidence ahead of the trip to Oxford United. Pep Guardiola’s troops are likely to stick to their attacking style of play and we predict that they are going to prove their worth on the field. Anyhow, you should bear in mind that Guardiola is likely to mix the squad against Oxford United.
Highlighted Player (James Henry):
James Henry was born in Reading on 10 June, 1989, but he grew up in Woodley. He began playing football at his home-town club Woodley Saints, but he made progress during his spell at Reading’s youth academy. Henry is a winger who is capable of playing as a centre midfielder as well, but he failed to score for Reading in 10 league appearances for the club. After ending his loan spells with the likes of Nottingham Forest, Bournemouth, Norwich City and Millwall, he signed a permanent deal with the Lions on 28 July, 2010. Henry signed a three-year deal with Millwall and he made his home debut in a 4-0 win over Hull City. It has to be noted that Henry played for both Scotland and England at youth level in the past, but he has yet to make his debut for the first team. Henry was born in England, but his parents are Scottish and, as a result, he is eligible to play for both England and Scotland.
Highlighted Team (Manchester City):
Manchester City are the lest famous of the two major clubs based in Manchester. The club was founded in 1880, but they have been struggling in the English Premier League in the past. Nonetheless, ever since the club was purchased by Abu Dhabi United Group in 2008, the Citizens have been playing an important role in the English top flight.
Manchester City won two Premier League trophies under Roberto Mancini and Manuel Pellegrini (2011/2012 and 2013/2014), but both managers eventually paid the price for some disappointing results. Man City play their home games at the Etihad Stadium and the stadium capacity is 55,097.
Manchester United are regarded as Manchester City’s biggest rivals and the likes of Kun Aguero, Carlos Tevez, Shaun Wright-Phillips, Uwe Rosler, Yaya Toure, Sylvain Distin are some of the most remarkable players that played for the Etihad Stadium outfit. Manchester City have won four Premier League titles and five FA Cup trophies and it has to be noted that they made it to the Champions League semis in the 2015/2016 season.
