Manchester City will face Watford on Tuesday in the third round of the EFL Carabao Cup at the Etihad Stadium, with kickoff scheduled for 2:45 p.m. ET. City currently leads the English Premier League but recently drew 2-2 against Arsenal, despite the Gunners playing a man down for most of the match. Watford, on the other hand, is positioned eighth in the EFL Championship and is coming off a disappointing 4-1 defeat to Norwich City.
The odds for the match favor Manchester City heavily at -800, meaning a $800 bet would net $100, while Watford is listed as +1800 underdogs. A draw stands at +650, and the over/under for total goals is set at 3.5. Fans can stream the match live on Paramount+, which is currently offering a seven-day free trial.
